I think you need to go back and reread what was written..i dont really need people, including you, to tell me not to put a 9 inch in my car because its Ford...yes there was lots of useful information, and no i dont want people to agree with a 9 inch....it just seems to me that all the Ford bashing because you are a mopar guy is really immature...i asked about the cost, durability, etc. of a Ford 9 inch. not whether or not you or anyone else thinks it belongs under the rear of my car...my heart was never set on a 9 inch, just on the cheapest route i could go without sacrificing strength and performance...thank you to all the responses with helpful information...I have decided to go with the 8-3/4, so all you Mopar purists can put down your anti ford flags and crawl back in your holes
and by the way, joke or not, crack is for total losers, and i dont appreciate anyone associating me with that group because i mentioned something about using ford parts...here we go again, another mopar purist....
