Why dont you take the bolt out and do like in this pic or cut the top off and weld a 3mm x 25 mm strap across the tophttps://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/im...010/07/470.jpg

Firstly fix the axle housing. Better still replace the the whole assembly with one that that hasn't been butchered.
Then, you don't need to weld anything, do it the way it's done in the spring works, clamp the spring pack leaves together, remove the bolt, then heat the flange and bend it over.
A bit of paint on the leaves wouldn't go astray either.
As Lotz-A-Landies said, or just put another spacer plate under the drivers side mount.
If there was a problem with your swivel housing bearing or Raiko bush to drop your axle by that much, you would have noticed a difference in your steering (would have loosend right up and shuddered after hitting bumps) and the swivel seals would have dropped out all your oil IMO.
Here's mine with parabolics. They actually came with plates on top of the springs.
I can't see the difference to mine.:oQuote:
