Default Need help with axle offset problem

Hi guys

I have posted the problem I am having with wilwood brake kit and axle offset several times, yet have not resolved the problem.

Here is the story

I have ford 9" rear end with big ford new style end housing flanges. Wilwood offers two offsets, 2.36 and 2.5 offsets. I measured the housing end flange and axle flange and it is more than 2.5" offset. It is approximately 2.62 in offset. I guess whoever built this rear end did not pay attention and could care less about getting the right offsets.

So now I really need to know the way forward to resolve this damn issue. What options do I have at this stage to get the offset to 2.5" and install the brake kit I have.
