i bought a 8.75 rearend housing from a fellow member.  The housing has had the spring perches moved in an inch or so.  Looking to move them back to factory locations, anybody have the measurement from how far from the end of the housing to the centerline of the perches should be?  Its a 71-74 b rear housing going into a 74 charger

Can you us the center to center distance if so I will get under my 73 and measure the distance for you later this afternoon or I will get under there and see what other measurement I can get for you.

scroll down some and you will see the distances

right i did they just show the distance between the two, i need the distance between the perches and the backing plate

I crawled under my 73 and 74 Charger with the ants and this is what I cam up with. The 73 is 4 3/4 center from the backing plates and the 74 is 4 7/8 from the backing plates and both of them the brackets are 2 1/2 wide. Hope this is what you needed.
