This Member on FABO has the LBP 7.25" from His '73 Swinger for sale, 2.76 & probably open diff. Wants it gone before end of next week. 11&1/2hrs round trip & $150 in fuel for Me, so not likely. Somebody closer hopefully can save/use this.

I have scrapped 3-4 of those over the years because I couldn't find someone who wanted them even for free.

The brakes are the only thing I keep. They bolt on an 8-1/4 or 8-3/4.

I have at least one complete LBP 7 1/4 rear. Also have a complete housing minus the gears and gear carrier. Was a 3.91 SG with all new parts. I was made an offer I couldn't refuse.
K6- I would have to double check, but I don't think those had 10x2 1/2 brakes
EDIT: just checked and they are 10 x 2 1/2 inch brakes

I did. Not anymore. Got tired of tripping on them, they went to scrap
Got tired of "crickets " when I offered them on the forums, been a few years ago. (Mine were F -J-M body variants, don't know if that had anything to do with the non interest inthe ones I had)

Yeah Don, probably the case, I pitched the one from My 4dr. '80 Volare after swapping in the 2.94 SG 8.25 from My '83 Dippy Popo, which got an 8.75 from a '68 'runner. A lot of those rears had that miserable 'Iso-Clamp' leaf mounting setup.
It just strikes Me as odd that with the ease of doing the '73&^ frt UCA/spindle/disc swap, the folks who aren't racing or beating their rides, that for the cost of maybe a set of U-bolts, they can have the matching pattern & better rear brakes. Especially with a B&T prop shaft, avoiding cutting/swapping/converting anything...
