9" rearend build up

Nov 06, 2006 2 Replies

I have small bearing 9" with 3.00 gears, an open diff and 28 spline axles. Its under my 66 stang, I dont have a high horsepower engine but I really need to get some traction. But I was wondering how strong the small bearing housings are? Would be a waste to put money into to this housing?



I say it's tough enough,put a limited slip in it and minimum 3.50 (ish) gears. 28's are plenty strong for the street/limited strip action. 2 black marks are definately more impressive

The weak link in a stock 9" is the LS unit. Spend the money for an after market LS or a locker.
