why a Ford 9"?

I'd say most people use a 9" much in the same way they build a 350 Chevy. Just about everybody has them and they are cheap..Thats about it. I'll stick to my Mopar parts myself and let the broke people settle for the cheapest thing they can get their hands on. :cheers:

Cheap? Who is this guy? I have over a grand in my cheap 9". You guys what you want. Custom 31 spline alloy axles, nodular iron case, detroit locker and an Richmond gear set isn't cheap in my book. My opinion is that the 8 3/4, Dana and 9" are all legendary axles. Maybe my next project will have a 12 bolt. LOL! Nah
