Much better. Though, Ax was right. The original position of these things does indeed favor the rear of the opening, but that was way too much. In stock form, you should barely be able to tell, but you can tell they sit rearward of center when looking from the side straight on. It does look way better now.

Chuck is right about the stock axle location, it's not as noticeable on a stock truck but the lower they sit the more obvious it becomes. That is the main reason for stretching the wheelbase when converting to IFS. Looks like all is well that ended well.
