Hello Group,

Does anyone know what the stock width of a Pinto rear end measures
Wheel mounting face to wheel mounting face.

Tony, I just went out back and measured both of the 8" rears I have. I have one of each behind the shed.
Measurements are as follows:
Pinto: 57" drum to drum; 42" on center perch to perch.
M II: 57.25" drum to drum; 42" on center perch to perch.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Doug,
I'll have to pull out my Lincolin Versalies rear and check the width...
