Leaf-sprung guys, need a measurement

[Blatant]

Howdy, all. If a couple of you front leaf-sprung guys could measure your spring center-pin to center-pin distance, I'd be much appreciative. Thanks.

Depends on what springs your using

I would not do an off set spring second time around.
Use a centered pack like a YJ leaf, Toyota rear pack, or a Wagoneer front (2in off set)

center pin to center pin on my wag 44 front is 31.5"...geez ash, you need to write a book or somethin with all those measurements and info!!

 

[Blatant]

Yeah, sorry if I was unclear. I meant width-wise, center-pin to center-pin, side to side.

BDS 3.5in YJ leafs, Part: 004351 Front

This is what I have, $160 for the pair with bushings, military wrapped on both ends, lifetime no questions asked warranty, give about 7-8 inches of lift.

and yes, the center-pin distance on my Waggy D44 was 31.5 give or take 1/4", I don't remember exactly. This is also the same width for Chevy front axles.

 

[Blatant]

Cool. My 78 Ford hp 44 will bolt right in. Nice.

So your saying that the center pin width is 31.5" ???????

 

[BrettM]

it's 31 point something, so it will be within 1/4 inch and bolt up fine
