Can anyone provide me with the measurements to mount the suspension out of a 2005 mountain viper. Apparently I need:
Drive axle back to front mounting location.
Top of tunnel down to front mounting location.
Front mounting location back to lower rear mounting hole.
Top of tunnel down to lower rear mounting hole.
Greatly appreciated...

Norwegian, I'll certainly let you know how it turns out. I just need someone with a 2005 Mountain Viper to give me the measurements from their machine.
Dirtjumper895 the 2004 wouldn't work, it had a different suspension than the 2005. Thanks anyway..

Oh crap, I was gonna do this for you back in like April and I forgot about it. I got one sittin in my garage right now, so I'll try and get all that measured for you ASAP.
The back mount is on a drop bracket that's from the factory. Do you still want measurements back to the mounting hole that's in the drop bracket??

Yes I have the drop bracket so I should be able to mount it in the tunnel with that measurement.
Alright I'll see what I can do. Probably look for it around Fri, Sat, or Sun as I doubt I'll get to it during the rest of the week.

Thanks SXlover that would be great. Just measure from the flat of the axle back to the center of each hole and the tunnel down to the center. As exact as you can get it please.
Thanks again..
Thanks again..
From the flat back side of the drive axle to the center of the front mount - 11 11/16"
From the inside top of the tunnel down to the center of the front mount- 5 9/16"
From the center of the front mount to the center of the rear mount- 31 5/16"
From the inside top of the tunnel down to the center of the rear mount- 7 5/8"
Hope this helps, and I hope my measuring was as accurate as possible. Kind of hard to measure with the skid still in but I did my best. Good luck and you'll have to post how it went.
