    I need to know the length, eye center to eye center. Can be on or off the the car, I just need to know which way you measured. I need this for a stock spring, no Posies or other. Thanks

    The car is a woodie, the lengths are the same for all car models, the spring pack built up will be different, I just need the length.

    I'm at work with no Fords lying around, but for estimating purposes the length of spring loaded with weight of car is going to be very close to the distance between shackle hangers on radius rods as the shackles live in a vertical position on '48's.
