The B dimension on a slipper spring is the distance that should be between the hanger and the mounting point on a slipper spring equalizer.

For example the part # e46SR that you referenced should have a distance of 24-7/8 inches between the first hanger and the equalizer mounting point.

Since equalizers can have different lengths there isn't a standard dimension with this spring.

Let's use hanger kit part # AP202-H238 as an example.

The first hanger of the hanger kit part # AP202-H238 will need to be 29-1/2 inches from the center hanger, the rear hanger will then need to be 29-7/8 inches from the rear hanger to install the Slipper Spring kit part # SP-161275
