Default Rear End Width

Could some one please confirm what the measurement should be for flange to flange for a ford 9 inch for a 67 bird with a 18x10 rim and a 4.875 backspace???

Thanks

58" axle flange to axle flange should be close but your in for a tight squeeze with 10" wheels on a 67.

The car is going to be tubbed, so I should have some extra room. I might have come across a narrowed rear end that is 56" and was wondering if it would work. I can't get to my car till sunday to take any measurements.
