Pretty sure a built 9" capable of handling what the S60 can is not all that much lighter.

Only true comparison I have seen between the S60, the 9" and the 12 bolt.

Read it and you will be surprised at the myths floating around regarding the 9".




Thanks for the link-that was an excellent read! I had no idea the rearends were within 20 pounds of each other. I got the 100# number from a trusted vendor. Must not have been an apples to apples comparison or just bogus info.
