To be fair I did come away with having to check measurements from outside hub to outside hub along with current OEM upper Arm measurement from ball joint to center of where A arm attaxhes to cross member. I figured that OEM specs on that would be standard.

Also I did measure on the back axle for the current shock clearance was 12 7/8 from center of lower bolt attachment to upper bolt attachment. Picture above. The width was about 2 1/2 ". Doubt without a newly welded bracket that any coil over would simply bolt up here.

Do you need coilovers in the back? Coilovers are great if you need to adjust ride height or corner-weighting, but if you have them on the front you may be able to use QA1 adjustable shocks in the back along with your existing coil springs.
