Axle Tubes from a broken disc brake rear

want to fab up an 8.8 but need to find thirdgen length axle tubes that can use my LS1 brakes. HAve a good fourth gen rear but want to sell it and go back to thirdgen spacing.

So if anyone has a blown up 10 bolt with disc brake ends, that isn't rusted to ****, and you want to chop the tubes off flush with pumpkin, let me know. Or, if you are in the NJ area, I can just pick-up and chop myself.

Thanks for letting me know. I will be keeping you in mind. Downside to using a 4th gen donor is that I would need to cut off all the mounts, have the 8.8 built to 3rd gen width, then weld all the mounts back on at the correct 3rd gen locations.

But, it might prove pretty difficult to find a junk 3rd gen disc brake rear that isn't rusted to hell.
