Rear axle set-up
Looking for advice on setting up the rear axle on my 40 Studebaker build. What I have is a Chevy 8.5 rear axle on leaf springs. The shock mounts that came with the car were a joke. I can fab mounts I have from another frame, but don't completely understand the staggered/non staggered setup. I don't care to convert to 4 link, the leafs will work fine for my purpose. I'm afraid I don't have a real good pic of the rear end. Thanks
Could it be a 10114182? If so, it is a Gen V 454, 4 bolt 1991 (or later). Hope that helps..
