I don't know what it is you need to learn but there are a lot of good sources out there, like Randy's Ring and Pinion, for the technical and setup stuff. If you're looking to understand the different 9" parts, then you might try this site: http://www.kevinstang.com/Ninecase.htm

I'm running a Strange aluminum housing with a Detroit Locker 31-spline case and alloy axles in my Fairlane so I'm not completely unfamiliar with them.
