My 72 c10 with rear coils requires a new rear end. What are my options for a complete swap from a junkyard? There are very few 67-72s to choose from locally, what other vehicles would be a good donor for my truck? I have searched the site and web for widths for GM vehicles, but the results are limited.

I am not worried about welding the perches or other items on the new differential. I'm just looking for the correct width.

What axles have you been able to use successfully?
