Moser 9" rear width

I did a little searching and it seems a typical 10 bolt is between 61.5 and 62" wide according to 2 threads. My car is at a chassis shop getting a cage welded in and I can't measure the actual 10 bolt I will be removing.

I just assembled my moser 9" which is using LT1 rear brakes. When I ordered the housing from moser it was 3rd gen length with 4th gen housing ends for the better disc brakes.

The question I have is the moser 9" from the outsides of the rotors I come up with 59.5". Can anyone verify the the dimensions of a drum 10 bolt? If I am 2" narrower I am glad I ordered rims with 5.5 bs instead of the 6.5 I was considering. I didn't order the 6.5's for clearance reasons, looks like I may have to grind out the bumpstop and hameer the insides for the 28X11.5 QTP's afterall.

Thanks for any help.

59 1/2 is close to the width of a 1st gen Camaro rear end. They are 60 inches wide. I'd say that they got it a little too narrow. I've got a 3rd gen rear end in my shop. I'll measure it tomorrow, but I'm sure that it is wider than 59 1/2.

The 9 bolt that I have is 61 1/2 inches without the brakes. That would make it about 62 inches with the rotors.
