Need late 70's, early 80's jag owners help

Hi, could someone with a jag with the 2 suspension mount bolts in the rear do me a favour. I need the measurement from the suspension bolt at the front to the first hole at the back. Here is a picture to help explain-

It would be apprieciated. Thanks.

I do not have one, but give it a few days and you should have an answer.

Alright cool..
Well what im doing is swaping in a 79 jag suspension into my 77 jag. The 77 suspension only has 1 mounting hole at the back. I bolted in the front of the suspension into the same hole but now im thinking it could be in a different spot to. So i might need measurments from the drive back to the tunnel??
Here is a pic of the 2, pretty big difference haha

Can't you measure the hole spacing on the original sled frame that the skid came out of?

thanks for the response but i got the measurments today off a jag for sale. luckily the front holes are in the same spot so that makes the swap easy. and the measurments from the front hole to 1st back one is 20 1/4 and 24 1/4 to the second.

good thing you didn't use the one from my panther. By any chance do you have a working stator from a 440 laying around you would like to sell?

Thats a nice looking Jag you have there. I have 2 jags, both 3000 series, ones a F/A and ones F/C. If you need anthing else measured, I'll go out to the barn and take a look.
