8.25 gears in a 8.75

Yes that is what I was wonder was how strong the 8.25 was. I know my 8.75 holds up fine to my 408 in my duster on the street, but since the 4bt has a bunch of torque already even with out any modes yet, I was not sure how strong the 8.25 was. Now granted this will no be a track or even a tow car, so other than playing around on the road, it should not see to much abuse.

That was another thing I didn't know about was the hard ware like brakes and what not. If they were readily available and I was wanting disk, but that is not a must.

I do agree that it would be just cheaper to just use the 8.25. I was just not sure of the strength. I guy that guy really wanted it to look like a factory car with the 8.75.

Can you interchange the diff between all the years of those in the 8.25. I ask, because I read the higher gears use a different carrier than the lower gear ones. So, would I have to get a certain year housing to use the 2.24 I'm wanting? Like if I find them in a diplomat and want to use an A-body housing?

Thanks for all your help!
