I'd run it with the 2.5 knuckles and axle shafts, go for a motor first before new knuckles. The only thing I'm worried about is how much material was removed from the axleshafts to fit the 3.3 shafts. But I'd only be worried when they break. Good work, lack of $ is the best inspiration IMO.
i haven't removed any material yet and the only place they hit is the top arm and its just a nick, and just a wee little where the shock mounts to the lower arm.
i could probably rub enough material off with my finger

also is it ok to shim here (yellow circle) with washers , will it off balance the shaft?. even on both sides
