I'm looking for the dimension from the radiator core support mounting holes to the first cab mount. I've got the 47-54 Truck Factory Assembly Manual and it only has this dimension up to the 3800/4100 trucks (the same as the 3100/3600 at 44.859").

I've heard many times it is '4" longer' on the bigger trucks but need the actual dimension to be sure.

If I need to, I'll lay under mine to measure but I was hoping for something a bit more precise.
