Re: 1940 merc rear end?
The length should be the same as Ford but the radius rods might be the shorter type that were used later on Fords. The part numbers are all 99A for the torque tube and the radius rods. The 99A radius rods were also used on the 1941 Ford passenger cars. In 1942, the number of the radius rods was changed but they look pretty much the same to me. I have a 41 car rear axle and it has the short radius rods.
Ford used the long radius rods for passenger cars through 1940 and for the Commercial pickup in 1941.
