I was told you measure from the retainer face to the axle face where the tire mounts,But car is in storage with no access to it. I was wandering if i could find that out here???

A-body only axles have the small brake offset for the 1 3/4" brakes/backing plate B-body axles have the large brake offset for the larger brakes/backing plates what size brake on it now? do the disc brakes work with green bearings? what kit? (doctor diff sell a nice package ) I dont recall the measurement for the offset right off i can check my spare axles later though Last edited by scratchnfotraction; 01/20/11 10:28 AM.
