Does anyone have any information on rear axle flange to flange and
spring perch dimensions for C-K and Hawk cars and Avanti. I guess I
could do some crawling and measuring, but thought someone might have
these measurements handy.

Thanks,
Joel

It's kind of hard to get an accurate measurement because the pumpkin is
in the way. Needless to say, they are all the same as far as I know.
I'll try and get some sort of measurement today as I have a 3.07 44 on
blocks in the back yard.

I have a Hawk, Avanti, and a Lark rear end sitting in the garage. Like
JT said it is hard to get a measurement because the diff in in the way.
I measured all three a few months ago and they all were the same,
about 41 inches if I remember right.

58 1/2 inches flange face to flange face. No need to get all the way under
it to get the perch measurment. Reach in from the back and drop a plumb bob
line down from the outside edge of one spring. Do the same thing on the
other side but this time on the inside edge of the spring.
The measurment between those two marks will be the same as if you measured
from the center of each spring.
