if strenght is what you're worried about, you just need a TII rear end. there are guys in the 9's with a stock rear.
if you really want a live axle, Grannies has a kit for the Ford 9"

so you think a stock gxl rear end will do?? i have prothane control arm bushings and the diff is literally welded to the cross member under it. so literally like solid diff bushings.

The GXL is not a T2 diff. Get a T2 diff.

not as pricey as swapping ANY straight axle/live axle rear end.
