58-59 frame measurements

Hey guys,
I am hoping that one of you can get some measurements for me off your 58-59 frame. I need to know the distance from the front cab mount to the front of the frame and then the front of the frame to the center of the rad support. I am trying to find out how much longer the 58-59 forward frame portion is compared to the 55-57 frame.

Re: 58-59 frame measurements

pretty sure 58-59 is 2.56" longer than 55.2-57. all of that is in front of the core support frame mount
