Front axle IS high-pinion. Available ratios were: 3.00, 3.50, & 4.09.

the rear is a low pinion 9 inch and if ya wanted to spend the money currie could sell ya a high pinion 3rd member for that

Dont the high pinion Currie 9" rears actually use a 8.8" ring and pinion?

My 79 has reverse cut D44 front axle and swapped in D60. I broke the 9inch.

The front axle has 3.50, the rear 60 has 3.54. Its all stock right now. Running 31s with a 351M.

Yes the High pinion rear 9" uses a 8.8 R&P set for the conversion
