Default rear ends

OK first off i know what cars have the right rear end for my stang, but the junkers have already been picked at and now all that is left is the trucks, so does anyone know what 9" rear out of the trucks will be the correct length for my car?
67 stang 59.25" 9" its the v8 measurements.

yeah i found all of the same info on like 20 diffrent pages, but those rear ends are hard to come by round here, but truck of the 68-00 are like sand in a desert, so i was wondering if the truck axels/ rears would work?

they might be too wide and the spring perches are probably not the same...
