The 1970 and later axles are longer.

Have you tried these?

OP Asked what junkyard parts could be found and the answer is NONE. There are no axles of the correct length in 5 lug.

Beat me to it

OP does not have their location listed, but they may be able to find a local machine shop that can redrill their axles. They would usually weld up the old holes and then drill the 5 lug bolt pattern.

I was looking at old threads on the topic:
