Default HELP with custom axles PLEASE

I am putting together my order for my axles and need some help with one of the measurements. I need to know the "Brake Stand Out", I had my rear narrowed and should have measured it before I shortened the housing Anyone that has a F-Body rear laying around I would be eternally gratefull for your help with this

2.520" from the outside of the axle flange to the outside edge of the bearing.
These are my old axles out of my Nine inch before I narrowed it.

How much did you narrow your rear?

2 inches on each side. I have a 28x11.50 Hoosier on the back now with 15x8.5 convo pros 5" backspacing. I am about to get some 10's with 5" of rear spacing and roll the fender lip so it will fit.

Had to massage the inner fender with a BFH. Still needs a little more with an Air Hammer. It scrubs a bit In a slow turn.

There are pics in this thread if you are interested

BTW what backing plates are you going to run? I have the stockers but if you have an aftermarket brake setup you may want to measure the thickness of your backing plate and subtract it from the measurment I gave you.
In that diagram it shows the measurement from the outside edge of the backing plate/bearing retainer. I gave you the measurement to the outside edge of the bearing.
