I just picked up a 91 LT80 and the rear axle is forward on the sprocket side and back on the brake side. The front pivot points look good, the engine/trans looks straight but the rear axle & housing is not square. I suspected the brackets between the trans & rear axle housing but I can't see anything bent. I loosened the bracket mounting bolts to see if there was enough play to straighten it out but no luck. I compared it to my other LT80 and can't see the problem. Is there something simple that happens to these things that I'm overlooking? TIA.

 

Ok! Think I got it. From the top things looked ok but I tipped it up on end and from the bottom side it looks like the brackets from the engine/trans to the rear axle carrier are tweaked. Guess I'll pull it all apart, do some measuring & see if I can straightening it. It's kinda hard to find good refrence points on these things :-)
