A few weeks ago by accident I noticed somewhere that Plymouth and Dodge hangers are different?? Anyone have the dimensions? Maybe I have a set of Plymouth ones??? Thanks for any info.

But no dimensions I have found They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

Angled toward the front of car or toward the bumper? No way should they be foward. Straight down or back only.

You might have a Ply hanger on there which is roughly 3/4 inch shorter. I don't think Mopar Peformance was ever super clear on this stuff. At least I never saw a chart published anywhere.
