The Ford is the best choice.........in about 1,2,3......all the "haters" will be here telling you how expensive a Ford is. Bull excrement, that is a fallacy, as the ones who claim it costs so much are WRONG.

I agree.......I can do a 9" that will support pretty decent power cheaper than any other. The 3.25" bore aftermarket case's are cheap , the spool, gear and bearings are about the same and it will be stronger than an 8 3/4 ....... you have more options as far as housings and ends.
I went with the 8 3/4 because I had one too , but if ( the magic word ) I had it to do over again , I would have gone with ladder bars and a 9 " from the start.
The difference would be " I think it will work " vs. " I know it will work ".
I still think S/S springs and an 8 3/4 will work with my deal , but if it doesn't , I know what will.
