rear end woes

im looking for a rear end for my ford unibosy, i want to run a chevy rear for the lug pattern to match my front end, the front end is all from a 63 chevy so the lug is 5 on 5 correct? what rear end do i need to buy and what length, i know nothing about this so any help is appreciated.

bump for help

damn it all to hell.

buy a tape measure and measure the width of the narrowest part of the inside of the bed, then figure out the wheel dimensions you will run, then once you get the distance from mounting surface to outside of the wheel/tire, subtract 2 of those from the width you found, then 1/2" or so for clearance, then theres the width you need....

last night i figured out the length but im still foreign to which rear ends come with the 5 lug pattern i need, should be 61-87 chevy i assume.

buy a 2wd 1/2 ton late eighties - 90s chevy truck rear end..... then just narrow it....
