I'd measure mine, but it's a little short now....lol..... I'll check over at the Torino forums.

Be advised that the 71-73 mustang housing is identical in width to the 70-71 Torino.

yeah i was looking for these measurements

center of spring perch to center of spring perch
overall width from flange to flange (where the brake backing plate goes)

and courious on if the off set is the same as the galaxies, where the left axle is 4 1/4" shorter than the right


i was looking at having one made but between all the measurements and the possibility of them/me getting it wrong and then being stuck with it i think i would rater try a torino one with the stonger housing before i have one made

thanks
rick

hey greg i found the overall measure ments but i just need the perch measurements and i'll be golden (like a shower )


rick

The Torino housings are not very strong. They have small bearings and small axle tubes.

The truck housings are much better for high HP apps.

I'll see if I can get the specs for the Torino spring perch width. I know they are different from the Mustang in that respect.

Greg

Let me know if you still need the perch to perch measurement... as I have a stock rear suspension still in my torino... might not be a zero tolerance measurement though, its under the car, and ill be using a tape measure!
