Rear end width

Sep 29, 2006 8 Replies

I just keep teasing you, eh Calvin?



Can anyone tell me the width of a 54 Coupe rear, plate to plate?



My 59 model moves from plate to plate and as the width is ever increasing ,the best I could give is a estimate

Pat,

42 " center of bolt hole to center of bolt hole.

Not sure what you mean by "plate"? Drum to drum is 58 1/2"

Brake backing plate

OOPS !! I sent you the wrong measurement. Thought you meant SPRING PLATE.

Disregard the 42" Measure.

that won't be a good way to compare different makes of rear end since the drums may be wider or mounted differently. the mounting surface of one drum to the other drum mounting suface would be a better comparison.
