8 /3/4 rear axle slip over housing end .

-
Not likely the best approach. 8.75 rears have a tendency to twist and slipping an end on a tube may not get you lined up properly.

Don't know of any manufacturers that sell that type of end.

Dr Diff sells billet steel housing ends here:

BUT, you can't, or should I say shouldn't, just weld them on. Getting them on square is most crucial.

You should really have these:

And a steel rod that slips through the entire length of the housing and through those fixtures to properly align the ends.
 
8 3/4 are famous for having bent axle tubes. so i agree a slip on would be a real bad idea .rearends must be done with a good jig to get correct alignment.paul
