awhile ago this happened to my rear diff

i made a template and got some steel cut and welded them on

the mounts are now 10mm thick, they have been on the car for around 6000ks and no problems

That's when you just add more steal to the tube.

I have similiar strenghtened mounts, except more added to the back section and the rear mounting hole lowered to turn the whole housing back around level so the pinion flange is still at the same angle as the rear trasnfer output.

Front has been done the same and for castor correction.

did you have to remove anything from the diff to weld them on or did you do it on the car?

I pulled it out of the car, but left it assembled for welding. The next day i did pull it apart to inspect axles and the centre.
