Need measurements plz help

I just installed the DJM flip kit in my truck im looking for measurements to make sure my axle is in generally the same position...

the measurements im looking for is from center of the front wheel to center of the rear wheel and from the outside of the rear frame rail to the inside of the drum in the rear...


Any help would be amazing thanks guys...

What makes you think your rear end is possibly not in the right position?

As long as you lined up the flip brackets with the center bolt in the leaf springs and have the hole in the flip bracket forward it should all be lined up. If your still concerned I can take some measurements in a couple of hours.
