Rear Axle Specs For <72 Dual+73> Cab& Chasis and Fendered Dually

I am searching for a 3:73 Dana 70/80 or 14 Bolt axle to replace my non Hwy friendly Hotchkiss rear end. I am looking for backing plate mounting surface and spring center bolt width dimensions. I am changing my bed from 8x12 to 7.5x10 and I would like to do this right the first time. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
