Need track width measurements
Hi everyone,
Would someone with an aerostar please go measure from the center of one tire to the center of the other across the front and the back for me? I am trying to guestimate the front and rear track width.
Measurement one: center of tire to center of tire on the front. I-?-I
Measurement two: center of tire to center of tire in the rear. I-?-I
EDIT: If you would, please tell me what year the van is as well.
Thanks in advance,
Brian_B

I was hopping that someone else would go out and measure, but sense that did not happen, I went out and froze my butt off trying to measure.
97 AWD Ext
Front 62"
Rear 60"
I did it by myself so I would say +/- 2" on the measurements. I do know that the rear is slightly narrower than the front.
Hope that helps.

I can imagine how cold it must be up there. I assumed someone a little farther south would try. It is very much appreciated though. Go reward yourself with some hot chocolate on me.
That gets me in the ballpark. Now I will go measure the project and see if its close.
I did not know the rear was narrower, but then again probably most are.

One thing I have noticed is that the rear end is usually narrower than the front, especially on FWD vehicles.
