I have followed some of the threads on modified differentials along with solid axel mods for the higher horse power and tq. What I have not seen is a 12 bolt or 9" that is modified for the IRS. Has anyone ever done this and would these diff's be any stronger for a high rated BB? Or am I thinking way out there?

I always thought that one of these diff's shortend with stubs would be very strong.

Any one have comment or seen this?

Do a search on 12 bolt conversion, many threads about that!
