New? Probably have to get lucky and find some NOS ones.

Have you thought about swapping the Pinto/Mustang II 8 inch rear in? Everything is available new for those,

I have no source either. But, I agree that a used 8" might be cheaper (and stronger) in the long run.

would love an 8 inch but can not find one ..  a friend has three but wont part with one .. even after all the stuff i.ve given him over the last 30 years ..  i guess i will just weld the axle cogs to the carrier and have a locked posi till i can do better .

Where are you located at?
I might have one I can get rid of, but shipping would be horrible.
I'm in Glendale AZ.

Have you tried Row 52? https://row52.com/ It lets you know where cars are in yards around the USA.

i welded up one of the spider gears in my stock rear as i did not want a full locked posi ..  the results shocked me ..  it will spin the welded wheel at will ..  it`s like i'm driving on ice ..  the little chevy V6  dont have 700 horses but it acts  like it does ..   i have  bought a ranger rear and will put in in soon ..  it is only 1 inch wider  than stock ..  i know i can drill my front rotors for 5 lug to match but i dont know if i can drill the new rear  to 4 lugs to keep my existing wheels ..  and it has that bolt on rear coupling that i will have to deal with ,, we will soon  find out .. i have welder and torch .. it will go in ...

I have complete drivetrain from my ad just below yours.

I'd meet half-way if I could dump the entire package.
