Rear Axle Length

Ok, I have a Dana 60 housing sitting thats been cut down to what I assume is the proper length. I sent the off a set of Moser standard 8 3/4 axles off to Moser to get cut and resplined. They keep telling me my numbers dont add up dispite me measuring several times and getting the same numbers. In the photo the red line represents the Pinion Center not the center of the of the rear cover.

Me and a few others came up with axle width of
OK I marked a line approximately center pinion and measured diagonal to the center of the axle flanges (center of axle flanges to keep the measurements as close to the same spots. I came up with 26 3/8 on the driver and 24 1/8. Which gives me a difference of 2 1/4 inch.



Does the axle measurements still stand?

Driver side 25.03
Pass side 23.59


Im looking to achieve a total of 50 5/8ths thats over all with brakes and such.
