rear frame width on 88

i am looking at an 8X6 flatbed for my 88, but the truck is across town, buried in the back of the big shop. does anyone know off the top of their head what the frame width is??
this bed has a 35 1/2 inch rail width, but i seem to remember the 78 and newer trucks having a 37 1/2 inch frame.

I have an 88 F-350 7.5 L and I just measured the frame and it is 35 1/2 center to center.
