Explorer was 59 1/2 according to the interwebs, and my brother measured the one he got for me at 61". I'll measure it Monday night side by side with my 7 1/4 and I'll know for sure. But my 8.8 has discs in the rear where my 7 1/4 has drums. If the difference is close enough ill get wheels with the proper width/backspace to allow me not to cut this rear(that's the goal). If it's too great, then ill shorten it evenly on both sides to what it needs to be, Or give it to my brother for him to use on his 23 tbucket project.
