rear track width: bump compared to dent

I've done some searching and can't find it. What is the track width of the 73-78 dents? I know the bumps are 60 inches in the rear. What is the rear of the dents?

I am looking a buying a 1978 f150 9" to use on my 2000 Ranger prerunner build. After my research I am a bit confused about the dimensions. The '73-'90 F150 axles are reported to measure 58.75" housing flange to flange. The '78 F150 supposedly had a track width of 79.3". I have not found a flange to flange dimension for the 2000 Ranger 8.8, but I believe the width is is 58.25" wheel mount surface to wheel mount surface (Explorer 8.8 is 59.75" WMS to WMS and the Ranger 8.8 is 1.50" shorter than the Explorer axle).
