I've busted a few but I don't run "beef tubes" either since I don't want the housing to get too rigid and risk moving the weak point somewhere else.

I come from the 1:1 wheeling end of things too. My last wheeler was a tubed toyota on built 1 tons, 44" tsl's with a 231 crawl box feeding an atlas II. No bling just pure function.

Plain and simple. Heck yes i would like a centered Front.

I will admit in the beginning i was a bolt on guy. As i started learning l started doing my own mods to the best of my ability. I sold a few rigs because they were the same as everyone else. I like to have different than the norm rigs and a centered Front would be just too dang cool. I mean look at this insane rig Hittman's 2.2 UC-Fab Radius. Talk about drool inducing.

As i said, i like building my own stuff and a centered Front it will have Axial Wraith XL "MMTB" Build

Flip the locker over and put the rig gear on the other side. That will reverse the rotation and should allow you to put the housing on whatever side you want.

Wait for the response in the release of their wraith width. If there is no centered splined then there you go. Lol
