yea i plan on geting the bearings to put in for the input shaft and yes there is some offset there but i will be building new "axle extension tubes" if thats what you want to call them so they will be the same length and then i will be replacing the stock axles with a 3ft piece of drill rod so the new tubes and axle should correct the offset. hope i explained that good enough it kind of confuses me sometimes lol and yes i also plan on tieing the upper and lower square tubes together and adding a crossmember that my jackshaft will mount to
