My pony's a$$ has too much slop


What prices am I looking at for a 9 inch 3:55 posi and a lot of splines? Do they have 38 splines or is that unheard of on daily driving applications (That will be getting an extra 400 to the wheels in a couple years.)

You dont need to go with a 9inch rear, just get the 3.55 gears, a 31spine diff, carbon clutches, new bearings and forged axles and you will will have a rear thats plenty strong. In addition to that you should probably get your rear end braced, have your tubes welded and if you are really worried about your rear you should probably reinforce your torque boxes and whatnot.

i agree 100%. the 8.8 should be fine.
