The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot '60-'66 Trucks 1966 c20 - width of rear axle?

Howdy fellas.

I got this email from a fella in Sweden... so I thought I'd throw it out to ya'll. I've been poking around in my shop manuals, but I have not found the dimension yet... but maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.



Hi,

I read through your page about your truck, so I was hoping you maybe have the width of the rear axel, backing plate to backing plate. I´m about to make some changes on my C20 so I don´t have the width on a regular rear end.

Grateful for any reply.

Thank you!

I told him about this place and some other forums, so maybe he will join up.

Try going to one of the following sites ( http://www.crankshaftcoalition.com/wiki/wheelbase,_track_width,_and_differential_measurements#gm_truck ) or ( http://www.carnut.com/specs/rear.html ) and see if the needed info is there , good luck !!

oldblu65 - thanks for the tip.

If its not too late, I believe it will be 65" mounting surface to mounting surface.
