Default Dion Axle

Hello,
I know irs is all the rage but I want to use a dedion axle on the rear, I will making up a jig tomorrow and need to confirm the dimensions. I make the distance between the outer faces of the RU8 plates at

531 Centre to centre of the lower suspension bracket holes
391 Centre to centre of lower wishbone was 381 lefthand
391 Centre to centre of lower wishbone was 381 righthand
28 Outer face of RU8 plate to centre of RU6 tube lefthand
28 Outer face of RU8 plate to centre of RU6 tube righthand

Making a total measurement of 1369mm outside to outside of the RU8 hub mounting plates, I want to use the standard sierra diskbraked lobro type driveshafts without modification

Cheers
David

IS't the rage on solid axle trailing setup cars.

But not on fully independant designed cars.
