I must be reading impaired. I didn't see where you asked that question in your post.

I though you wanted overall length.

I'm looking for wheel mounting face to wheel mounting face so I can confirm 17x9 with a 4.5" backspace and -.5" offset would work.

I'm figuring 48" bed width + 6" clearance between the wheel and the bed (60 total so far) +4.5" per side of backspace would intimately = a rear end that's 69" from where the wheels mount.

All theory so far.

Wouldn't that be axle flange to axle flange?

It would, yes. I'm using wheel mounting face and axle flange interchangeably.

Update!

I bought a set of F250 super duty axles and am in the process of rehabbing the rear.

It's a 10.5 Sterling with 13" disc brakes and dual piston calipers. 4.10 gear ratio.

Axles are 1.5", 35 spline and full floating. Everything about this axle is absolutely massive.

I got a Detroit Trutrac for it in today and when the carrier bearings show up next week I'll try my hand at swapping the diff and reusing the ring gear.

    Depending on the mileage of these axles You might entertain the thought of a complete disassembly,
    pinion bearings and hub bearings. Having rebuilt dozens of axles I have found it to be a better approach,
    You will also need a case spreader to get it together with the proper bearing preload. Not knowing how
     much experience You have I hope I am not out of line, but I have seen a lot bad "U Tube" rebuilds.
     Dana Spicer instructions also apply to any Salisbury type axle,needs to be right for big HP...

Your not out of line, I appreciate the input. I have new carrier bearings coming but am going to try to leave the pinion alone. If it patterns good before and after the build I'll sleep mostly ok.

I may have questions for you later this week or early next week.

Not saying there is a correlation (and I haven't a clue which company he used to work for), but this is suspect:
