They were similar but they varied year to year almost.  66-67 was the 
narrowest.   There are housing measurements taken from factory parts
manuals and various verification measuring sessions with housings 
of 63,64,65,66,67,68,& 70 B-bodies... at

the 64 (non-MW) was super wide, and actually interchanged with 880s
and Chryslers...  If you look back to the advertising for 1964, 
Dodge & Plymouth both touted a "wider rear track".
