Just re-drill the axle pads or add a adapter pad like Gene suggested. Don't make anything permanent till the bed and fenders are on and mounted. Don't buy a drive shaft till you get the axle in place. I had my drive shaft made and axle mounted before installing the fenders. After I figured out it looked bad not being centered, I cut about 1" off the end of the running board so the fenders could move forward. After 6 years, no one has ever noticed and since the bed was new there are no extra holes. Joe
