The 55-62 open driveline center section will bolt into the torque tube banjo housing, but the pivoting spring mounts must be made rigid at the proper pinion flange angle in some way. Welding usually doesn't work well because of the rubber bushings involved. It's a lot simpler to weld new spring mount pads onto the axle tubes in the correct location after figuring out the proper pinion angle.
