you can make your own 609 (dana 60/9" hybrid).
9 inch center section, 60 outters.
Worried about the housing ? Thats mostly for playing in rocks, and hard off roading, but if you are, you can build and weld a truss with extra bracing on it no problem. This would make the housing STOUT. You can run cross bracing, long truss on top, extra tube braces, you could go crazy with the thing ! Wouldn't be an issue. Just stay away from the aluminum (sp?) third members. They pop, break, crack, and explode ALL the damn time.
Dana 70/80 would save you time, since it wouldn't require the extra fabbing. Basically throw it in and go, only minor mods.
Nothing wrong with the 14bolt ! They make for GREAT trench diggers !
Just kiddin, 14bolt FF makes for a great rear end. Had one in my ole Chevy with 40" tires. No problems, and I beat on it and tested every weak point ! Just hard to find around here, plus he said custom, so I thought he was wanting to go with one of those crazy bling bling guys I posted !
