59 Diff ratio options?

If I should want to install a diff with a lower ratio, to get longer legs from my 59 with its 3-sp manual, are there any plug&play options? Eg: Take xyz axle from '75 C10, plug into 59 (I'm thinking replacing the entire axle with another.)

I would just like to be able to cruise 64mph below 3000rpm, the lower the better.
