Default Whats the proper length axle for a narrowed 9", 3" per side

I cant seem to locate what the proper axle length should be for a narrowed 9", narrowed 3" per side. Long story short i originally ordered a stock length housing from mwc then later called and changed it to be narrowed 3" per side. They messed up my order and still had it as a stock length housing and had to use another one. So therefore im hoping the axle package thats sitting in my living room is at least correct. Its showing axle lengths of 27 and 30". Can anyone tell me if thats correct?

Mine is narrowed 2.5" per side and is 60.5"(if I remember correctly) outside to outside when everything is installed.

thanks but i guess that doesnt really help me out. I dont have my housing or anything just the axle package from strange. I was just looking for the length of the axles themselves since those are the only lengths i have. I know i can call tomorrow and ask but figured id see if anyone here knows first to prevent another call. They have already heard from me enough lately
