Re: measurements needed
do you have the rear still in the truck? Frames can be a little off if you use the front of the frame as a reference. As you have found it is best to do it before taking the crossmember out.
If the rear is still in the truck you can use that as a reference point..........measure forward whatever the wheel base is, make sure the rear is square to the frame first though. |

Re: measurements needed
I have to agree. its a little late but either meausre from the rear axle or the rear frame horns if you have an assembly manual. Make very sure that the frame is square first and then make sure the rear is squared up as well.
This may help you. The measurements are for a 55 2nd thru 59 3100 so don't use them. http://www.webrodder.com/article.php?AID=261&SID=60 Last edited by dwcsr; 03-24-2006 at 12:59 AM. |
