I broke 4 resplined 9" axles with a under 400hp smallblock auto and 10" tires before I went with moser axles..
I don't plan on beating the he'll out of it but do plan on taking it to track the 1/4 mile see what it can do. I also researched about the Ford explorer trac rear end 3.73 gears LSD but not sure guess when time comes what ever I can find at the time I'll do that.
