    8 3/4 dodge is as strong or stronger then a 9" ford and has the same bolt pattern. Although Ford 9" are more readily available, I'd still look for a Dodge Posi Sure-Grip if you can find one. Dodge 8 3/4 gears for good highway around 3:35.1

    Changing from Ford to Chev you'll need to change your bolt pattern on your wheels. Do you really need to use a Chev rear-end with the added cost of changing your wheels ?
