RE: SS Spring thing

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

62-63 used 2in shorter springs than 64-65s did or a 20 in distance from pin
to bushing.  That is why 4s & 5s that use a 22 in distance, need the spacer
to compensate for the shorter spring length between the dowel or axle center
& center of the front spring bushing to make the SS springs work.  As MO
stated less spring wrap up in front of the axle makes better pinion geometry
  I used the 3800lb on my 63 and of-course no spacers.

I'll measure from the center of the axle tube to the center of the front
mounting hole.
