Which one is correct?

This hunk of cr@p that has been asked countless times to be removed. http://www.moparts.org/Tech/Archive/axle/17.html I know 3 members that shortened b body rears to the 51.40 a body length because on this pile of shyat chart. Yeah they were REALLY happy afterwards.

BDW master Joined: May 2005 Posts: 4,747 Florida	Thanks Dr. May seem like a silly question, but are the perches same distance from flange end on both sides? For the e-body, I should weld the perch 5 1/4 in? There are no perches on it now, and I want to make sure of the correct spot. Thx Last edited by cnxt; 02/07/09 10:24 PM.
