I am using a 35 Ford front spring in the rear of my A and need to know the distance between the perch eyes on the front wishbone.

Thanks

I measured one and don't know what year it is, but it measured out at 38". On the rear for a model A, I have the perches welded on the rear axle at 48" apart with the spring in the shackels at 42.5 center to center. As for the bones, it depends, when or if split, where the bones were cut and bunged, as to there lenght. And maybe , I totally did'nt understand the question in the first place... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

And just measured a 37 axle with stock wishbone unsplit and those are 42" at the point where the shackles go to the spring...
