i have a 67 with similar problems. i went to my painters shop last night and they were just puttng the finishing touches on a 68 impala rolling chassis. i noticed there was a pan-hard bar across the back of the diff housing. i am thinking i will make a similar bar that will attch to my LMP diff cover stud.

Been racing A bodies for 35 years.Never had any problems with" centering the rear end".Its self centering as far as i know.Just bolt it in. Been using a H and R Parts n stuff rear sway bar fo the last couple years.Will make your car leave nice and straight.Any other ? Pm me.

if you have or are planning of getting adjustable upper control arms ,you will be able to center the rear in the body of the car gmonde

nope

i've had a LOT of chevelles all the rear end housings are the same from big blocks to 6 cyl as far as offset
64-67 were one width and 68-72 are 1 1/2" wider... but they all had a centered pinion

but watch your pinion angle

The 65-70 full size cars have a panhard bar because the lower trailing arms angle in very little and the uppers don't, at all.

Tom, the pinion in a 12 bolt is offset to the right approx. 1 inch..That's how the axles end up the same length.

but they're the same offset between 6's and v-8's
you're right about the pinion not being centered (i'm too used to ferd 9"'s)
