If your talking about the shaft its self, my 76 1/2 4x4 axle is 31 inches end to end. On a side note, I bought a 72 12 bolt coil rear end to put in my 67. Since my 67 is 6 lug and the 72 was a 5 I had a problem. I solved this by using the 76 4x4 6 lug axles and they fit perfect. Just my 2 bits

good info, thanks Viper!

i bet is actually 31 3/8", right ? from face where wheel mounts, to the very end of shaft at C clips end ?

can you or anyoen else with a 73-up rear axle with 11x2 brakes measure width of between the backsdie of brake backing plates on the outside diameter of them ? should be right about 56, i need ot know this measurement, am keeping records

does your 76 4x4 have 11x2 brakes ?!~

thanks!~

This is what Hollanders shows for 71-up 12 bolt:
2WD-30 spline; 31-15/32" long.
4WD-30 spline; 31-11/32" long.

For info, here is more:
70 2WD & 4WD-30 spline; 31-11/32" long.
65-69 2WD & 4WD-30 spline; 30-1/4" long.
