I'm building a new rear frame and forgot to neasure the distance between the front spring eye in the frame and the rear hanger eye in the frame. It has got stock rear psrings. Can someone measure it for me?

Yes, I know the front eye location but that's all. The car was built in 70's and is brought back to the same configuration it was back then, leaf springs with 50" ladder bars.

You may want to consider using sliders at the back also, to keep the spring rate constant and get away from the shackles all together at the back. Check out AFCOs' catolog for tech info on leaf springs and sliders. They sell the sliders too.

This will be kept "period correct" and done as cheap as possible; what I donät have I'll make.
