    9" 3rd member from yard w/ good ratio?

    There are plenty of full sized broncos being parted out in my area. I'll keep my eye open for a trac-loc w/ 3.50's. I plan to stay w/ the 28 spline axles as I want to keep expenses low. So from my understading the track-loc and gears are interchangable between any 9" correct???? Thanks!
