Re: [FWDLK] Interchange {if a train leaves Chicago ...........}

Nick,
Does the plym 56 11" interchange with the dodge 55 10"? If it does then
since the 55 10" interchange with 49-54 dodge/plym 10" and 56 plym 10"
interchange with 55 plym 10", then does that mean that 56 plym 10" or 11"
will interchange with 49 -54 dodge/plym?
If this is true then are they all the same?
This seems like the 90's version of "new math" my son's school calls "Every
Day" math, maybe I'll go ask him.
Actually I do have part of the answer, It looks like some of the pre 55
spindle uprights had the lower shock mount attached and the kit I have seen
for pre-55 include this mounting lug.
Scott
