rear height
« on: December 20, 2013, 07:13:14 PM »
I am mocking up the new diff and need the at rest distance from the top of the axle to the bottom of the frame. If this is available on a site would you point it out to me and I will bookmark the site, thanks, Henry.

My cars are stored for the winter, 21 miles away in a shed surrounded by 10" of snow and it's -20 degrees here. Do  you want to come up and measure it? I'll lend you one of my tape measures.

Alohagreen, 8" - that's how much snow we got last night. Unfortunately it will be a while before my cars see the road again.

We lowered the empty body onto the frame yesterday and I measured 6" from the top of the axle tube to the bottom of the frame next to the rubber bump stop. Henry
