I am trying to figure out what the points A & B represent in the frame diagram. I am assuming it is the leading and trailing edge of the K frame above the torsion bar center line but I am not sure. I attached the diagram.

Are they mentioned in text?
They are not ON the frame, but are a point inside the rails and below them....

I took a class in blueprint reading and dimensioning and I cant figure it out! It MAY be the torsion bar locations (?) but I dont know if they are about that distance apart. 33.92 is the bolt center distance for the K member, what I really dont get is the lower drawing dimension .70 below frame centerline and then the 1.74 below frame CL measurement that looks to be a parallel line (torsion bar under Frame CL?) Do the torsion bars rise toward the front? Looks too high to me.

are they the c/l location for the lower control arm pin location? which should be in line with the LCA strut rod hole at the front of the frame? Just throwing stuff out there.
