Pirate4x4.com has a 14 bolt bible that has all kinds of info. Cab and chassis axles are the narrowest, single rear wheel like I used are a little wider and dually pick up axles are the widest.

Good info...now if I can find the right rear end...I will be in business! Would like to find something in the $300-400 range.
Does anyone think there is a resale market for the Eaton HO72?
