No, unless you forget the Lug Nuts.
The way the Axles are held in is actually pretty good, just popping off the Cover won't hurt a thing.

Good things come in this case when you have the funding for it..

It's mainly the fact that the 9" stuff is a little cheaper.

The biggest thing that gets me is the Torque Arm mounting points. It takes 4 Bolts to mount it, and it's recommended by most to Tac Weld the nuts.
