1 ton bearings sound sweet on that 9" but the pocket book is laughing at me. however i do have 2 9" rears to choose from, one is under a 2wd truck frame and the other i dont know what it was from. i "could" take one of those and convert it to full float 1ton specs but the housing wont be as strong from the looks of it.

i need to look around and price the d60 and the heavier dana's vs conversion costs of the 9" i have. i gotta see if i have a high pinion to start with.

budgets gonna have to be considered in the end result though, bare minimum will be full float.
