Well;this has been beat to death.Everybody has a different opinion so,your call because it's your money.Lot of guys run 8.25 and they are a good rear,some must have a dana,and they are a good rear.Kinda like finding the (hemi in the barn) for 500 bucks.It could happen but not really likely.Peace of mind is a funny thing-but it is NOT cheap!

I hear ya......and yeah, the peace of mind I would get from buying this setup versus buying someone;s used whatever and hoping it holds up (if I could find what I am looking for that is) is probably worth it.

Still, the cheap bastard in me wants to hold out for that "hemi in a barn, cheap"...LOL
