Thanks Kid , that is what I was looking for , the backing plate I have is for a set of 3 inch shoes and is deeper than a 2.5 backing plate . I am going to run a set of Mosier axles with green bearing and needed to verify it . again Thanks John

Ok , no 2 inch shoes in the mopar world . Looking on rock auto shows 2.5 shoes for the coronet with /6 and 426 as the same shoe . What I am asking is how the off set from the 11x3 inch and 10x2.5 shoe is compensated for . Was it a different backing plate or what was it ? Here are several pics...

Look on the back of the rear end braces next to the cover and clean each up until you can see the castings there will be 60 on one of them if it is a dana 60 , the truck and van units will have a thicker axle tube than the car units but will not have a place to bolt the snubber , hope this helps...

The lower control arm pin should come out by taking the nut off the front and hitting the end with a hammer , be sure to cover the threads with a piece of wood before using a hammer . as far as the sleeve goes this is how I removed it from my LCR . I put a socket that would just fit into the...
