Leaf Spring Rear End Need in Louisiana

HJAlbert has kind of an emergency, and he needs a leaf spring rear end in the Louisiana area. I don't think the gearing is real important.

His phone number is

480.203.1885

He needs a 12 bolt, gears I dont' think matter to him. He is in Lafyette.

Here I am, just got to a computer, no, I sold all the 4x4 parts off when i moved to Louisiana, ended up not liking it here to much and decided to make another go of it in AZ. but when i moved it was not convenient for me to take the jimmy (it wasnt running) so i left it with intentions to come back and fix it. Well I fixed everything in it, and was driving it down the driveway and the rear end locked up. apparently it had a hole in the rear differential cover, that had been punctured when it got dented in and rubbed up against the ring. thus all of the fluid leaked out, and allowed moisture in while it was sitting for 2 months, and the metal shaving from the cover didnt help things to much. I flushed it all out and cleaned it up, and put new fluid in it, so far no problems, but i am worried about it. especially when i am about to drive it 1400 miles towing 2 of my motorcycles. so if anyone could help, it would be most appreciated. Doesnt matter what gear ratio, but would prefer either 308 or 373 and it does need to be leaf. what bothers me is i sold my spare rear end when i moved here for about 50 buckks i think so i wouldnt have to move it. oh well. wish me luck!. anyway, thanks for the help.
