I will be installing the Fatman IFS kit on the 58 in the near future but reading through the material provided and various posts on the internet I am hoping to find someone who has installed such a kit and can identify how they located the axle centerline.  

The 58 came to me without any front running gear.  

Is there a "landmark" on the frame or a dimension from the front of the frame or cab mount that someone can share with me?

Would like to see pics of your installation also.

On the one I have in the shop, it measures 28" from the front edge of the front body mount to the axle centerline. It's been messed with, but looks right.
Welcome to hell. Here's your accordion.
