The pinion is offset 1 3/16" toward the passenger side on all A,B,C and E body Mopars. The engine, transmission and driveshaft tunnel is also offset. This^^^^ Depending on what you are building an 8.75 will have equal length axles D60 will have the drivers side 1 3/8" long than pass side. Dr Diff has a really nice calculator on his site.

Many THINK the pinion is centered on an 8.75 because the axles are same length, but not the case. As covered NO Mopar pass car rear comes from the factory with a centered pinion. The motors are moved over to clear steering usually, so the entire driveline follows suit

There are some good working fabricated cars out there with the driveline C/L moved over 1" to 2". Just saying.

If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

The driveline in my Scamp is offset 1/2" to the right.
