I could email your place but this info might help other's. I'm seriously considering one of your 9" units..I said unit....
:) My current rear 9" has an ARB. Can I use that one with one of your drop out's, or do I have to get a different model? I know I'll need new gears and bearings but what about the ARB?

I think they only sell complete units.
You may be able to ship you ARB and have them install it.

Yes we certainly can use your ARB. If you check out this page http://www.truehi9.com/Prices.html it will show you the cost.

Thanks

Yes but it is usually not worth it. The case and gears are the expensive part. When you buy it complete you are getting the rest of the components at cost. That way we can sell the complete unit and it doesn't seem like you are paying a ridiculous price for the custom case and gears. Plus it is assembled by someone that has built well over 200 9" Ford diffs (some high pinion some low).

Do you make these units available for front applications?

Off topic here but there's a couple of pics on your site of a rig dragging the rear over some rocks...are those pivoting spring hangers?

We do make them for the front the oiling is just different.

Yes they are pivoting spring hangers. It is a customers truck.

Awesome, I'm thinking of doing a Hi9/D60 hybrid...best of both worlds, low weight and strong.

Hows the sway action on those pivoting hangers? I ran those BC Bronco spring rockers for awhile but they were downright scary driving on the street and in some off camber situations so I took them off. I was thinking it would work better using just one but I never experimented with it.

Anyways, thanks for the info :smokin:

Say they handle great, just rode in it this weekend! At the DTC in SD. Home made & Todd has run them a few years now. Ramps 1500+ on 20* ramp. :)

Cool deal, I wish the rockers I was using worked as good...well they worked, just had bad side effects. Ok, now back to our regularly scheduled program :p
