Are the radious rods the same on the 87" & 88" cars? Are the rear radious rods the same on 39" and 40" setbacks? Thanks

The radius rods are typically the same for both 87/88 inch wheel base and 39/40 inch setback.

23.5" LR, 24" RR (rod length)

Where do they get the extra inch or couple inches from? The center of the frame?

normally the mount points to the frame are where they gain or lose

The radius rods on a 88 vs. 87 inch car are not the same. You will need to add the extra inch onto the front radius rods. The radius rods on our 88" car are 23 1/2 on the right side 22 1/2 on the left.

Been a long time since I had a 39" car so I don't remember the exact lengths but I do know I had to buy new radius rods when I went to a 40" car.
