I recently did something similar. I took an old 6spd uniglide wheel and put a 7spd hyperglide body on it but I had to rob the axle and cone/dustcap from a 8spd hub I had lying around.

check Loose Screws, Bike tools ect, Harris Cyclery. with the Harris Cyclery site you can access the QPB inventory.
All of the hyperglide bodies have the same internal diameter (the 'c' bodies may be differen)t and threading as they all take the same lockring. Drive side dust caps need to be paired up with the corresponding axle to avoid sealing issues.
