Can someone tell me what offset is on a B body Dana.

I may have the factory measurements here, I'll have a look later on.

Maybe it's a bit cold for those Dana owners to get under there with the tape measure Mick!

Thanks Blue
I've bought a Dana that's been narrowed, the problem is, the yoke centre only has 5/8" offset and my A body 8-3/4 is offset 2-3/8".

At it's present width of 52", wheels with a 4-1/2" bs will fit but rather than a longer tube, take 2" off one tube and have either a new shaft or have the existing one cut and resplined and fit 3-1/2" bs wheels.
However, i have measured the tubes and the long side is 30mm shorter, so swapping the tubes and shafts side for side might do it. The only problem with doing this is holding it all straight for welding.
