Default factory spindle centerline

Greetings all,

I have a 65 coupe with no front suspension. I am gathering info for a Mustang II suspension install, but it looks like i will need the spindle centerline measurement, which i don't have.

Can anyone help me find this info? I have a frame chart, but its not really helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Arclight

Wouldn't it coincide with the peak of the fender opening? IDK...maybe X inches forward of the rear center?

That may be. This car has no suspension at all... but i am not worried about the rear. I will just center the axle up on the fender and square it with adjustable links. The front seems a bit more important: do you suppose i could throw a set of fenders on and use that measurement to find the center? Im not completely convinced...

I wonder if this would be safe to use with any generic M2 crossmember?
