WTB: circa78 ford HP 44 and rear 60 or 9 combo

[gearwhine]

I've been looking slightly for a long time for these, found some, but passed. Now it's time I really need them.

I'm leaving for TX in about 2 months, and I really need to get these done before then as I won't have a shop.

I am looking for mainly a ford (drive drop) 3/4 ton 44/60 combo (8-lug style). I may opt for the 1/2 ton 5 lug with the 9" instead, matching width 14 bolt may also work, who knows, just let me know what you got. However, anything with cast on radius mounts is absolutely out of the question.

I'm in central NJ. I'm not looking to pay an arm and a leg, as I can always take more time to get these at a junkyard really cheap, they're not rare. I'm also not looking to drive great distances. Thanks guys, hope you can help me out. _nicko_

Nick I have a 78 bronco with 44/9inch combo 100% there if that works

thanks Joe, but I actually just went to the junkyard here and they have like 5 complete sets of those, however, that's all they had, nothing without the cast wedges. If you come along anything else just let me know. thanks again

you don't belong on this board anymore, how's that for being picky?:kissyou: I'm really not that picky with this, but the cast wedges are just out. I have no idea how to work around them since I'm not using radius arms, and I feel it's easier to find an axle without them, rather than to retube to get rid of the cast parts.

Ask BrianHO13 how he did his.

theese are the ones welded on I belliieve so a little grinding would take them off.

If that's the case, then I am interested. I'll shoot and PM over now. Thanks Joe.
