Default "budget rearend upgrade"

I'm helping a good bud upgrade his 01SS. He has full bolt ons, all suspension mods, and I've convinced him to upgrade his rearend before adding H/C.
It's a 6sp so I know it's gonna need some beef! Is there a "Bolton" option without dropping $2500? I'm thinking 9" 430gears and 35spline axels.
Anyhelp would be awesome guys thanks!

Seems like you hit it on the nose. 9" is the best route to go under 2500. If you want it cheaper look for a used one. Most after market "upgraded" rear ends are all about the same price give or take a little excluding "fab 9s".

I've searched around without much luck. Where is everyone getting theirs at?
Didn't see much options through the sponsors.

Check out Spohn's site. They have a sale that runs until midnight tonight. Rears and driveshafts are on sale for the lowest prices I've seen around.
