The logical way would be to use the parts off a 78/79 series. But they have the longer R151 gearbox which puts the transmission cross member further back and allows room for the pan hard rods. But I wouldnt want to lose the lovely H55F 5speed for that bucket of bolts.
Or fork out for H150 / H151 gearbox. Either way you will have to make a new crossmember.
Or sell the 75 and buy a 78/79 series.
IMO , you would be best off getting the best quality leaf springs and shocks

There are a couple rolling around with custom 80 series axles stuffed underneath here in the US. We don't have the option for anything coiled from the factory so a few have gotten creative.
