I recently bought a street stock and measuring off ball joints to points on frame the right side is 3/4 inch shorter. have seen where modifieds are longer on this side. is this something to worry about or what is this goin to change or affect.

You are measuring from lower ball joints correct?

yes its something to worry about

its possible the rr is leading that much so youll want to figure out where that adjustment was made or if its bent parts on the rf

I would plumb bob down from the bj, then two holes on frame at kick out then two holes on frame at the back before it turns in on the side. find the middle of all three of those marks on your floor and they should be in a straight line down the center.

I measured from lower ball joint grease fitting to oval holes in frame just behind trailing arm mountson rear.
