I'll measure when I get home as I have a spare of both. The rear axle is I think the shorter of the two. I believe the swing arm pivot bolt is longer

Right you are, as g_l_s_r (mark) noted when he made his custom one-off axle adjusters...... IIRC, the pivot is @ 10mm longer

swing arm pivot bolt is just shy of 14 inches, rear axle is around 13 inches
