In the end I decided to pull the axle and fix it out of the car, which turned out to be a good thing. B&B had sent me some tubing and some other small pieces. I decided to use some suspension tabs I had laying around which I believe gave it a lot more strength. While it was out I also fixed the caliper brackets as the bottom holes were drilled wrong causing the lowed edge of the brake pads to hang over the rotor about a 1/4", and I fixed the caliper to bracket clearance.

The axle is upside down


The holes had to be welded up re-drilled and tapped.
