Per the Mopar Chassis manual, 8th Edition:
   year, body, front segment, rear segment
   60-76, A, 20, 35
   76-82, F-M-J,  24, 34
    70-74, E, 22,35
   65*-79, B, 22,36 (*I think this should be 66-79)
   64-65, B, 21,35
   62-63, B, 20, 35 (measured and verified yesterday on a '64 and on my 
'65 Satellite)

As a side note, the SS springs have a 20" front segment (they are A-Body 
units) so us '64-65 B-Body guys need to get a 1" longer front perch (or 
go mini-A/FX with a shorter wheel base)
