9" for my 49

I'm looking for a 9" diff for my 49 F1.

I read this article:
1948 through 1960 Ford F-1 and F-100 Rear Axle (differential) Swaps .: Articles

It lists 57 - 72 F100's as being the correct width for a donor. I have a line on a 73 F100 but the article doesn't say if it's the same as the 57 - 72 F100.

Does anyone know if it's width is correct?

Thanks.

Dave
