Aaron said this:

1961-68 the W300 DRW and SRW are not the same axles.

If you measure the distance from the backing plate to backing plate, you will see that the SRW is narrower here.

Also, the axle shaft are different lengths and are not interchangeable from SRW to DRW.

The spacer is not just a spacer, it is really the hub and houses the outer bearings.

Mr PG said that the PG era W300s had the same width backing plate to backing plate of 47 1/8 inches on the rear axle, and the axle shafts were the same.

So again the PG era axles may be weird compared to what you are looking for.
