Need new Front end

I have a 1973 4x4 F250 with some front end issues Dana 44, 4.10 gears). I would like to change out the entire front end for one with disc brakes. I cant seem to locate anything.

Does anyone have any suggestions or leads. Also I was looking at 1974-1977 f250 8 lug front end. Are there any other ones that will work???

Thanks

Rick

If you are going to lift the truck the 771/2 - 79 high pinion Dana 44 for leaf springs would be your preference because it solves drive shaft angle issues .. If you are going with stock height - 4" lift the HD low pinion Dana 44 in years 76 -771/2 will work fine on your highboy chassis .. I have 2 of these axles complete with 4:10's they are a little pricey because the large hubs are worth so much by themselves .. If your interested PM me ..
