I just got my truck doneabout 2months ago drove it maybee five times then the rear end desides to chew itself up on the highway. My question is what year(s) rearends will fit DIRECTLY into my truck. I'm sure a 67-72 will fit but I would like someone who knows for sure tell me. If they will fit does anyone have a 3.23-3.73 posi they want to sell? No junk please I'm a broke a$$ and need something I can put in and go thanks.

Leaf springs, or coils?

You are talking about your 65 in your signiture? If you have a coil rear, and you still have the stock 6 lug/drum stock set up....anything up to 69 that has the same spring set up will match 100%. A 70 will work,a nd still be 6 lug, but it'll be just a tad bit on the narrow side. (only matters if you have hella-meaty tires in back.)

If you find one in (or between) KC and Manhattan before Friday let me know, I'm heading your way to visit my brother.

Sorry I don't have one.

Its a coil rear and I'm running weld racing wheels 15x10 with 295-50-15 tires so I need it to be the wider of the two. I need one bad and I've called two people who advertise parts in the paper and they dont call back. What is it about a cash sall people don't understand. I guess I need one from a 69 or older then.
