Hey Gents,
Can anyone give me a measurement for how far the trans tunnel is offset to the drivers side in an Lx, I’m doing a diff conversion and the diff yoke is about 5mm off centre in the trans tunnel.
Cheers

I don't quite know how to measure that... the trans tunnel is from memory not really a symmetrical shape.
You could roughly measure where the floor starts to curve up in different areas. The floors at the front are very different, I do not recall the trans tunnel (further back) generally being a long way from centre (if at all).
A 5mm offset in the diff yoke shouldn't have any consequences though, even much larger asymmetries than that aren't much of a concern. I made and installed a tight, integral tail shaft loop in my floor around the front end of my tail shaft and even the packaging of that didn't much care where the diff pinion was positioned.

Cheers Guys, I have it sorted. I was being a bit anal, I double checked all of my measurements and the diff is bang on where it needs to be so I guess as stated it’s just the shape of the tunnel that’s making it look off

Just out of interest I the trans tunnel is offset approx 20mm towards the drivers side of the car, as is the pinion on the diff
