No. First time I ever did that I twisted my drivers axle in 2 pieces. Put MTs on it and go to the track. Slip the clutch at 2500 or so and once the clutch is all the way out and you are rolling push it to the floor. About the only way you will not break your 10 bolt. If you don't want to do that, drop 3k+ on a 9" read end setup. Some sponsors say they are cheaper than the others. They are really all about the same. I went with Brute Speed. Good company!

Moser 9 inch with a Trac-Loc is what I would go with, along with the PST driveshaft option. Bob
