Are you going to shim the gearbox up or just use it as is and put the inserts in the 1 deg top positions? I suppose the latter should be the equivalent of having the +2 with the inserts in the lower positions.......
FYI, I just set mine up with zero inserts on all but the right rear, which got a .5 deg insert in the inner/middle roll center position and it evened things up for now. Just sux that it will be my only option for adjustment.

You might want to move the offset pill to the left side and shift that hinge pin out. Moving the right side in will give you 2.5 toe which might be hard to drive. Imo 3.5 will be better especially if you're running shorty.

When I look at the '15 rear end, yes it looks off set (eg: one susp arm is cloer to the bulkhead). Is it the blocks or the bulkhead thats out?
That's why I took the RR +2mm block off of the '15 and mounted it on '14 rear end. If the rear block is machined wrong, then it should have shown up on the gauges, which it didn't. Both sides read 3deg.

as i understand both insert hole shouldn't count from the screw hole.....maybe the gearbox is not mount in the center line of the 'car'

These are the measured angles of the hinge pins to the centerline of the chassis. I used the 2 balance holes to align it.

The alu suspension blocks have asymmetrical holes made on purpose to offset the small differences in the composite bulkhead after they cool down after moulding. As such, the suspension blocks are all correct and after assembly everything is correct.
When composite parts are assembled with others parts using screws, they tend to bend in the direction of the screws. XRAY's legendary attention to the detail in this case ensures that all composite parts are measured after assembly and the tolerances of the moulds are adjusted to offset this kind of effect to ensure the geometry is correct.

Xraysupport,
Can you explain to me the issue I have been having where my dog bones bottom out into the drive cups when they go vertical, only allowing half travel when I have the inserts in the inner position?
Also, why does it seem that nobody found this with the 2014 rear hinge plates?
And why does one outdrive protrude father than the other in a diff that was designed to be run either direction?
thanks.
