I can put a ford 9" but then i would have to get it narrowed, order axles,and all that goes with it, plus I already bought the moser axles for the 12 bolt.
Sounds like you have most of the things covered. By " loading the driveline " I'm referring to getting up on the converter just a bit before activating the brake, so as to take any slack out of the driveline before releasing the button.
I, also, have heard that supposedly you can use a different pinion brg. on the car gears that will allow them to be used in a truck housing. I believe that I got that info from Moser, so you may want to check with them on this. I personally haven't seen a pro gear for the truck 12-bolts, so this may be your only route to putting pro gears in your housing.
Good luck with it, whichever way you decide to go...
