v6 and 4cyl. axle housing the same?

[Skim]

Does anyone know if there is a difference between V6 and 4cyl rear axle housings?

Strength? Diameter?

I have a 87 4cyl. axle houing that I am thinking about using, just wondering if a V6 housing is stronger.

Ive heard that the 6 cyl housing is a bit stronger but Ive yet to prove it.  Id say if anything the later the housing the better really.  Well better until the taco's that rip the perches off.

not if it's 86+ just drop in a v6 3rd and go!
