What's the stock axle width for a 59 from mounting surface to mounting surface? I have a 9" from an old Bronco that is 58" wide and was wondering if that would work.

I think the stock axle is 62".
Some of the guys are using late model blazer rears
2wd is 58" and 4wd is 60"

58" will work if you need `13 -16" wide tires. the stock one is 62.5"
I have a 58" and have the BFG drag radials that are 13.5 wide.
