8 3/4 tough enough?

I just went through this. By the time I figured having a housing narrowed, buying shortened axles and having a third member built it was within a few dollars of having a strange s 60 built to the specs I wanted with a Tru trac carrier. So I went with the S60. Should be here next week.

Got to figure if you invest in the 8 3/4 and it breaks you're basically going to be investing and doing the job twice.
