I'm pretty sure you are going to have to modify the spring perches for just about any rearend you put in other than the stock one. You just grind off the old and weld new ones on. They are pretty easy to get and do.

I'm going with a 6 lug corporate out of a '66 Chevy truck for mine, the PO put in 3.07 gears and new bearings. I'm just looking for brakes.
