First off, I gotta ask; Why?

If you're 2WD, it is already spring under. If it's 4WD, you could probably use parts from a 2WD truck and just weld on a couple of new perches. I would not swap in the axle though as many have a 7.5" ring gear.

In the off chance you have a 2WD and are looking to go springover, then 4WD parts could be used once again with new perches or perhaps a complete axle assembly from a 4WD truck of similar vintage.
