75 will have a tank that runs along the frame rail right behind the cab I think. Not what has been pictured. Also, the 5 lug rear on that truck will be leaf springs not coils. You could use the front but the front is also readily available elsewhere.

That 75 is probably a 10blt axle. If so and IIRC the axleshafts will not swap. If its a 12 bolt though you can swap the shafts with no issue.
