you really need to let us know horsepower, weight, and if you are going to be running slicks or street tires to get a good answer. The dana is stout but heavy. The 8_3/4 can handle alot of power as well and is a decent amount less unsprung weight.

He's probably right, ask him what he runs.
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

And it's all unsprung, this is a handling forum after all.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

Great info in this thread. So repressing the gag reflex and considering a "Ferd" rear axle (just kidding, I also own a Mustang and love it! ) where would you look to source a complete 9"? How do they compare for weight/cost, etc?
