I guess we all have our own driving styles .... my Toy rear end has held up very well 36" TSL's and a 350.  I have NEVER broken an axle or a R&P and yes I have done about all you can do to in abusing it.    Reverse to first, power breaking on wet and dry pavement, the tranny has a very aggressive shift kit and when it goes from 2nd to drive at 5000 R's..... BAM!!!!!  4yrs running now with only a carrier to show for carnage.

When you say your gonna flip the axle upside down for high pinion use, which way would your axles then turn???

Thanks for the info Stewy... the motor will be in the truck backwards  and no its not for high pinion.

Also, I just for a set of Ford 9" axles for $100 CAD, it that worth it?... I guess they aren't all that pricey. and they should also hold up, right?

I'm just asking because they have the pinion that comes out of the 3rd and I have an article on how to make the oiler work for a flipped axle.
