I'm gonna be pulling my 7.5 out of my 87.  it needs axle seals, i'm doing a 5 lug conversion, so i have no need for it.  I'm in Northeast Iowa. 

As long as you arent in a super big hurry for it, you can have it.  Otherwise, I'll s it out when it finally gets pulled.

I met up with the OP a week ago Saturday, and made the deal. Jon, let me know when you want to do the 5 lug swap, I think i I have Stang spindles here I could sell you. I know I have the ball joints you'd want...very lightly used. Pics are available, too :)
