Axle Flange measurements is from the end of one axle flange to the other axle flange.
Inside Housing Flange measurement is from the inside edge of the flange o n the end of the housing (where the brake backing plate bolts to) to the inside of the other housing flange.
Thats all I got, I know there are a few that aren't in there, and the ----- are the ones I don't know. I hope this helps anyone looking for a 9" housing.
Oh and one last thing to remember, some 9" housings have both axles the same length, this puts the pinion off set to the passenger side, where some have one axle longer than the other which puts the pinion in the center of the car. I ran into this problem on my car, the rear end was the right width but the pinion was off to the pass side.
