I need some long bed measurements please....

I am in the middle of my rear suspension build on my 65 C20 long bed. I forgot to take some measurements of my bed position before I removed my bed. And I don't have the bed at my house.

How much room is between the cab and bed?

What is the distance from the back of the cab to the center of the rear hub on a stock truck?

Thanks.........

Happy Easter........!!!!!

Thanks Link. After doing my rear bags, new rear control arms and wishbone my axle is sitting at 53 1/4" from center to back of cab. I plan on moving the bed 1/2" closer to the cab so I think my measurements will work out good.....
