axles inserted fully into housing, shouldn't this spacing be close to .500?
also did not have backing plates in place so add another .250
sure grip w/741 casting
measured axle from inside flange, thought this was supposed to be a little over 28"?

I have some original A body axles on the bench right now. I will go out and measure them in a few.
 
now you made me go out to the shop and tear my CC down only to find out I was wrong! 1.488 DOH! I must have had a senior moment. I need to keep better notes!
 
Thanks everyone for your help! Now that I have officially embarrassed myself I take back all the things I said (in my head) about the member who sold me these axles. so bright side is I get more practice setting backlash!
