Are you sure about that? I just looked up the spec on the Explorer 8.8" WMS and it was 58.5. The Lincoln 9" should be a bit wider.

Hey Rick!

77-81 Versailles:

Axle housing = 52.25"
WMS to WMS = 58.5"

Explorer 8.8 is 59.5"

won't say 100%, but I could get a measurement and be 100%.

The problem with versailles 9"s is finding them. The've been gobbled up by Early mustang owners. A perfect swap in for the drum braked 8" stock rear.
