Re: Complete Rear End Swap

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Measure the '62's perches:  the 'Perches' dimension is the distance center to center between the spring mount.

Then go from there.  

Once you have the drum to drum you can decide if you want to swap the 8 3/4 for a different ratio, SureGrip, etc. 

Thanks,
Gary H.
