No problem Tony but I think they are measured to the outside lip of the flange. What is the measurement to the outside of the flange? Can anyone clarify this?

I'll see you in a couple of weeks

**CC69Rat** · 11-09-2012, 07:58 PM

What if I measure mine from the same places? That way you'll know for sure. I think those will work though.

Hope this helps

shawno72 · 11-09-2012, 11:07 PM

That helps a lot. Thank you.
Edit can you pull the tape the same way as tony did in his pictures?

I'm thinking that if you pull the tape from the bottom of the flange it will be the same as wha Tony measured.

If I measure it from the back side the measurement will be shorter. I'm thinkin' Tony has the longer axles.

You may be right. That's why I was hoping to get one more measurement to be sure.

Outside Mounting surface to end of axle = 30.5. (nds)
Inside of the mounting plate to the end of axle = 30 11/16 (Tony)

Im seeing it as if (nds) measurement was taken from the backside of that plate it would be shorter than 30.5

Seeing the additional pics and posts, I think Tonys might be the longer 71-72 style. 85% sure.

Yeah I'm thinking the same thing Chad.

in my mind I was hoping it wasn't so but the more I think about it, it looks as though they are the longer ones. Chad do you remember how much shipping was on your axles?

318.xx seems to come to mind but, Im on the East coast of course.. and I got new bearings and seals included.

Sometimes Summit will do free shipping? Jegs maybe?

Yeah I found them for 272.90 shipped from Summit, no bearings or seals.

**CC69Rat** · 11-10-2012, 11:55 AM

Yeah man.. if the budget allows, IMO thats the way to go. Just remember, youll need 5 lug drums too.
