1971 Chevy 3/4 ton front axle parts needed ASAP - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So I picked up this 1971 Chevy 3/4 4x4 the other day when a guy couldn't pay me for the work I did on his truck. The transmission was out (I had a spare in the parts shed) so I pulled it home with my Blazer. I started tearing into the front axle right away and found that the passenger's side had been run with bad bearings for a very long time. It loosened the bolts to the lock out hub and ate it up along with the spindle and hub housing. I have searched high and low around my parts stash and can not find the right spindle or hub for the truck.
