Thanks Bob,
I like you reply... simple and to the point.
But can I tell if my rear-end is a wire wheel one that someone changed the
hubs to accommodate steel wheels?
Anybody know the distance from backing plate to the other?

TIA

Drew,

Just use a tape measure.  You can check between the brake backing plate 
flanges.  If the differential and axles or out measure through the center
for 
over all length.
