The 7 ½" uses individual bolts
7" uses a through bolt
So you may need a long bolt then simple washers will suffice
Or a tube cut to length

Also best check your drive shafts, 7 inch use 100mm lobros, most 7.5inch diffs have 108mm lobros.

Lobros you mean the end plates that connect to the drive shafts?

Is the 108 the total plate diameter? Or distance between holes

You are measuring the plate.
100mm lobro has hole pcd of about 84mm from memory.

so have you landed lucky and got the correct 100mm lobros to fit onto a 7 inch diff? 
Something like the above will do for spacers if your worried about using washers.
