Yeah, Right! dem high dollar nine inches are industrable Ask anyone who has ran a stock nine inch in any car that has some power and hook The nine inch Ford design robs more power do to friction loss than any other late model design out there I'll take and use a Dana 60 any time over a 12 bolt or Ford nine inch type rear end OP, look in your local wrecking yards or recycle yards for a used Dana 60 out of a 3/4 ton van or pickup and have it built for your car I bought one out of a 3/4 ton Ford pick up, it has the 3.125 diameter axle tubes, plenty stout and non destructable with all stock parts except the spool and required after market 35 splne axles Last edited by Cab_Burge; 08/28/12 07:09 PM.
