The best way to go is with the '78 or '79 F150 or Bronco Dana 44. These are plentiful and the more desirable year of the the 44s from what I understand (don't know the exact reason).
Ford had a Dana 50 and Dana60 in those years but both are 8 lug. I dont know that they ever had a solid 44 in those years.

but for the most part consider that as not being a possiblility, and grab one from the late 70s

No, there are no 80 and up solid 44's.
