Default '78 bronco hp44 question

I have searched for hours and can't find the width wms to wms for this axle. Forgive me if I missed it someplace I am searching from my phone. I am looking for an axle that is 65-67" wide for my project that is drivers drop. Any advice is appreciated. I plan on running 37's 4.7 stroker with a 4:1 case. Thanks

Wrong section but I'll answer anyway. 78 Bronco and F150 is 68" wms to wms and is not a desireable axle. It will have cast wedges which means you get to use the ford radius arms because there isn't any tube under the wedges. The tubes are also thinner than any of the other full width D44s. BTW 37s are at the breaking point of a stock D44. My built one doesn't like my 38s very much and likes to twist splines and snap shafts.
