Default Heading to the junkyard this weekend

My dad and i will be going to the junkyard this weekend to see if he can find parts for his old Ford p/u. So while we are there im going to look around to see if i can find any 6.2l engines for a engine swap in my nnbs truck. What else should I keep an eye out for? Looking for any bolt-on conversions using factory parts like disc brakes rearends ect ect.

The truck in question is a 2013 rcsb v6 with drums in the back. What lost treasures can i find for my truck? Thanks

NHT axle? 9.5", 3.73s and disc brakes, seems like a good find if you come across it.

your better off going to a auto dismantler for your truck if looking for a 6.0,you wont find any nnbs at a junk yard...

Smashed to hell nnbs trucks are 5-6k that's why the parts even used are $$$$$

I have 2 yards within a reasonable drive that have NNBS trucks, but they aren't a "pick a part" type setup, you simply go in and order the part you want and I'd be lucky to get a 6.0 or a 6.2 for less then $1500 used

^6.0s are 1000-1250 here with 100k mi. 6.2s are pretty scarce out here though
