Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier Bret, I don't have much in the way of internet access at the moment so it kinda makes things a little difficult.

The jig looks great.

Wether the axle tubes bend much depends a lot on who/how it is welded together. Try not to spend too much time welding in one place. Otherwise you will put too much heat into the tubes and streatch the metal. Mine moved about 1-2mm from the centre to the ends of the tubes, resulting in barely measurable changes in camber and toe. Tyeing in the ends of the axle tubes as you have done will help a lot with restraining any movement.

If it does bend more than you are happy with, you can apply heat with an oxy torch to streatch the opposite side but my preference is to do it right first time and not have to patch things up after.

Your jig should give you a good indication of how much movement you have, ie can you fit the bolts back in the axle tubes. if not a straight edge along the tubes will show up any significant bends.

Best of luck.
