32-48 Axle housings

[a30roadster]

I have set of axle housings( pretty sure they are 40's ) measure 25.5" from outer edge of housing to edge of flange that backing plate bolts to. I have another set (don't know year ) measures 24.75. Can someone tell me what year this set might be? Thank you. roger miller

Post some pictures - folks can easily tell by the spring hangers.

The longer ones are likely '42 - '48. The hangers are different from year to year, so pictures will help.

This article has been posted before, but might help you. There was a link posted recently to higher quality scans, but I don't have it.

Yes, much easier to read!

Thanks to all who replied. I am sure the longer ones are 37-41 as spring hangers are still on. The shorter ones have the spring hanger cut off and just trying to find out what year they were as per measured length. Thanks again.

Subtract out the width of the center section and divide by 2. Now you just need the width of the center section, which I would have to measure.
