I've got a TC rear sitting on jackstands in the garage. I'll try to get the measurement tomorrow. If I don't, remind me (I have a tendency to forget things like this)

Thinking of throwing one under the ranger?  You could always use an explorer axle.  8.8 disks and 5 lug to boot.
One 88

The measurements are:
 
Backing plate to backing plate: 55"
 to  (counting thickness of rotor as it's currently mounted on the ): 61"
Back of rotor to back of rotor: 56-3/4"
 
These measurements are all +/- 1/4" or so - it was difficult trying to get the measurements by myself as I had nobody to hold the other ned of the tape
