Favour Needed

Guys can someone go out to their garage and measure the distance from front of a-arms to back of engine block and also distance between the front wheels from ball joint to ball joint. First one to do it wins Kudos for being most helpful and if someday I can return the favor I will.

Distance from the front of the FRONT A-arms or the REAR trailing arms? I think we will have an SC in the shop today. I'll see what I can do.

I don't have access to my car right now so the best that I can do is share what I found from others

Wayner,
what source were these taken from?

I'd like to get a hold of a hard copy if possible.

Thanks,

Davy,

I think Wayner put out a nice chart for you !

Nevertheless i went and measured for you a length of 341cms or 134 inches from the aft bolt of the front torsion bar cover to the rearmost part of the engine and a distance of 121 cms or 47 1/2 inches between ball joints from cotter pin to cotter pin ...

Hope this helps,although it would have been easier for someone with a lift

Cheers !
Phil
