Thanks,

View Full Version : Need a dimension... SHANE 73Z 05-29-2007, 09:47:26 PM Does anyone out there have a dimension from the bottom-of-rocker panel pinch weld to the other across the car? Thanks, Shane Twisted_Metal 05-30-2007, 12:43:24 AM Any particular point you have in mind.... Front, rear, center, all of the above? I don't know if it varies from end-to-end but if I'm gonna crawl under my car with a tape measure, I want to know what you're looking for. ;) Marks71BB 05-30-2007, 12:46:23 AM ^^^ what Terry said. I would be happy to measure for ya. just tell me where SHANE 73Z 05-30-2007, 09:07:31 AM Thanks guys, My car is immobile at the present moment & tight to the one garage wall, or Id measure my own. I was looking for a dimension within about a foot of the front edge of rear wheel well. As a bonus, if the car has Alston frame connectors, can I get a dimension from drivers side pinch to the connector tube? Thanks again, Shane SHANE 73Z 05-31-2007, 09:47:55 AM Ttt Orange71 05-31-2007, 08:44:04 PM Shane, I took 2 measurements. First was measured at the only place I could get the tape measure all the way across without any obstructions...about 32" forward of the rear wheelwell front edge: 49-1/2" Second was at your requested 12" location. I had to measure from the outer edge of my CE frame connectors out to the edge and got the same measurement on both sides: 5-1/4". Then measured the frame connectors outer edges: 39-1/4". Total 49-3/4" Hope this helps.

Doing it by myself I hooked the dumb end of the tape over the leaf spring to hold it on the pinch weld: http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/triangle5/DSCN7048.jpg Then I went to the other side and got: http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t116/triangle5/DSCN7047.jpg This is with no driveshaft or exhaust in the way. Hope this helps. Mark SHANE 73Z 05-31-2007, 09:41:26 PM Thanks guys, I am going to be mocking up my new exhaust this weekend & needed this dimension to build one of the major pieces (out of cardboard) in preparation Ill post photos for you guys later. You should get a kick out of it. Shane Marks71BB 05-31-2007, 09:49:34 PM Right on, glad to help!! Mark |
