Thanks for the reply.
I too was thinking the same as you. Where as no logical explanation as to why they would have two different rear end lengths; and that wider frame rails would be better for stability.
Thanks for the 1/2 - 3/4 info. I wasn't exactly sure how close to the fender it needed to be.
Any other people got ideas or theories?

There is no set width for the housing, it varies depending on the backspace
of the wheels.
There is no reason I can think of to have different width for 4 link over
ladder bars,sometimes the bars mount under the frame and sometimes inside it
but this only affects frame width not the axle width.
A word of advice, even if 34'' works it is my preference to put the wheels
as close to the fenders as possible maybe 1/2 to 3/4''. Tubbed cars don't
look right if the wheels are too far in unless they are really really low
which involves cutting the trans tunnel. Also keep the frame rails as far
apart as you can for stability assuming you didn't get a pre-welded kit.
