rear end interchangablity

I've got an '83 f100/514 engine, and the stock 8.8" rear end. I dont know how much longer the 8.8 will last with this kind of torque, so I would like to upgrade to the 9". What year trucks came with the proper spring pad location/shock mount location/width to fit the '83? Thanks in advance

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 19-Feb-01 AT 09:52 PM (EST)[/font][p]they used the 9'' till 86 in the f-150's so any from an 80-86 should be just right, probably even the late 70's are the same
