Default steering is bad after diff rebuild!

i recently replaced my plastic lockers w/metal ones.
i have noticed since the locker rebuild that there seems
to be more cambering than there use to be. the caster looks to be stock,
its in the only holes for the c's to bolt to on the axle.
causing greater tuining radius. is anyone elses like this?

Hi,

Looks to me like when you rebuilt the axle you put "C" caps that have the steering knuckle bolted on to them, back to front - the left on the right and vice-versa tipping the steering forward and reducing throw and upsetting your castor.

Can you post a pic of the steering side on, no wheel?
