8 3/4

Not 100% true. The later 10 bolt rear cover Hybrid 7 1/4 Backing plates do work with 8 1/4, 8 3/4, Dana60. They are 5 bolt backing plates and are 10x2 1/2". Will bolt right on.

Correct. All BBP backing plates will interchange with any of the BBP axles, doesn't matter if the housing is 7.25, 8.25, 8 3/4 or Dana 60. The axle flange offset was the same for all of them.

What you can't do is mix and match SBP and BBP backing plates. The plates have a different offset from the end of the housing to make up for the axle flange stand off difference.
