ford 9 or 8 3/4

I've had more different gear sets in my 8 3/4. I can change them out in about 40 min. on my back.
Everything from 3.23-3.55-3.91-4.10-4.30 and 4.56. Looks like a wide selection to me.
Unless you put 700 or more HP through it. You won't hurt it.

Yeah your right Brian. However put that same 8.75 behind a stick car with 700 ftlbs and launch it at 3500 see how she holds. I like the 9" and Dana 60 because of the pinion support on the 9" and the shear beef of the 60. I cannot afford a Dana right now so the 9" was my natural choice. Also a 9" is just as easy to swap gears in if not easier because you can have different pinions and posi units all ready to go and just swap the pinion housing and boom.
