8 3/4 tough enough?
The issue with the 8.75 are cap walk, the cap moves, the spanner is then shoved to the side, the gear runs off the heel and then strips the gear. That is always what happens to the 8.75
It is a issue that can be solved, i have them in SS cars that leave on trans brakes.
Never EVER EVER EVER have we broke a pinion.
All housings will bend depending where the spring or link locations are to the bearing flange.
All housings will see twist, that's something that everyone making large power has to address with there stuff, the 8.75, 9" and other banjo style are more susceptible to bending and twisting forces than carrier style housings
