I asked this same question about this time last year, and my car is much more street then yours. Rick recommended the 9" ends, based on the racing part, not the street part. Honestly, I know this is the best route, but I ended up keeping the c-clips for now. With as little race as I do, I thought I would be okay with the 31 spline axles and disc brakes on the end. Now that the money is spent, I do wish I had gone ahead and done the 9" ends and know that it was bullet proof.

how much power you plan on making and is it a stick car? Reason i ask, is because strange told me that i was pushing it with my 31 spline axles and a 5 speed, so i stepped up to 35 spline pieces.

I was looking into doing the same setup. What I was told was that w/ 9" ends you cannot use the SN95 rear brakes, that you would have to go to an after market rear disc setup. Strange has a rear disc setup that will work w 9" ends.
