sad part is almost nothing for the eaton ho axle family anymore . there stock i heard rare 3.73 most were 4.56 or some 4.10 and some rear 5.12 or 5.13 i think .
if you want newer better options and still 8 bolt if that what you have find a 14ff from the 70'-90's trucks vintage and weld on new spring perches and shock mounts .
or if you want disc brake rear later find a 00's up rear with factory disc brake and swap that and be done minus metric lug nut threads on the studs .

I would like to swap to disc eventually down the line. Sounds like I should just wait till the rear quits completely or when I have time to do a big project and swap the axles to something newer. Thank for the feedback all.
