I got a S10 posi rear end with Discs. Looks like I can get the GM hangers to match up with the existing leaf supports on the axle. 2 1/2" leafs but that should work. Need to rebuild the Emergency brakes and such but it looks promising. One issue is the wheel studs are a different pitch than the Must II front end I installed.

Also, I went to install some newer 15" chevy rims on my front end and the inner rim rubs on the upper ball joint. What am I missing? 16" wheels? Different offset?
