Track width front and rear on 1990 V2500 Suburban??

[TheWiking]

I've searched this and A LOT of other forums, but NONE of them gives med the exact track width, front and rear, wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface, on a 1990 Suburban V2500 6.2 Diesel 8-lug...
Does anyone in here know?
I need solid evidence to confront my MOT-guy....

Thanks!!

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]New obscure track width info:[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]While swapping axles around this spring, we found some stuff we didn't know about and thought we'd pass it on. One big thing is that the change from 8 lug back to 6 lug on our 10 bolt front made the track width a full 2" narrower! The difference is in the wheel bearing hub itself, the 3/4T hub moves the wheel out 1". This helps explain some tire clearance problems we've seen when swapping to 3/4T running gear. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The rear ends seem to be 3" narrower than the frontends pretty consistently, with the exception of the van 1/2T rears, which are 4" wider than a truck 1/2T rear. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Here are some measurements we found:
6 lug 10 bolt front - 67 1/2"
8 lug 10 bolt front - 69 1/2"
1/2T van rear - 68"
14 bolt (10.5) rear - 67"[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]These are all wheel face to wheel face.[/FONT]

I was looking at an 8 lug 14b SF a couple of months ago. The owner said it came out of a burb. I think the track width was 67-67.5". I assume a V2500 has a 14bSF?

Thanks A LOT!!! There is the numbers at least Yes, I've got a 14bSF.

67" rear and 69.5" front. Okidoki, here we go!

Very strange that this info is not availabl through GM's own manuals...??
Has anyone seen this in a manual of some kind??
