I checked out a rear end outta a 2000 4x4 1500 and overall width with tires is 75" but was more beat up then mine. I did however find one thatll bolt up. Its a 14b ff outta a 4x4 and hes asking 180. Only thing is hes lil over hour away

Semi-float 14 bolts are 8 lug and were under 80's model 3/4 tons. 

Are you looking for something specific or just anything that will fit? 

That was a very generous offer from Fitz. I'd be inclined to spend the drive time versus searching through salvage yards and advertisements.

Only reason i was asking abot the lug pattern is cause i know the 88-98 style have either 6 or 8 lug 14sf and i can get 6 lug conversion rotors for my c10. Unless i find a 454ss rear end cause thats a 14bsf with 5x5 pattern but seeings how rare those are i dont see it happening
