Default flange to axle distance on a 9 inch?

I am cutting my gm 10 bolt and welding on big bearing ford flanges. Before I can cut it though I need to know what the outside flange to inside of the axle distance is. Im tired of searching on google so maybe one of you will know.

2 and 7/8 inches from brake mounting flange surface to wheel mounting surface of axle flange.

1500 series from 99-up all have the same rear brake offset.

2500 series offset is a different set up.

Because I need to know the distance on a ford 9 inch..lol

After I weld on the ford housing ends I will basically have 9" axles in my 10 bolt. I know the 9" axles have the press on bearing also know that the axle doesn't come out of the housing as far as the gm stuff. I just need to know the exact measurement so I can cut my housing correctly.
