true hi9

[fordtrucksrule]

should i go to a true hi9 or stick to the standard pinion? that is the question. What do you guys think about the true hi 9?

not much lots of bucks for what you get.

Expensive, but if you really need it then it is the way to go. I wouldn't do it unless it was truelly needed. Do you have a LOT of lift and a very long drivetrain that would require that you have one? It is the best option for a high pinion 9", better then the Currie high pinion 8.8 gearset that fits the 9" housing version.

i know it is the best option to go hi 9 my rear drive shaft angle is already at like 29 degrees then again my rear driveshaft is 27 inches long. i really dont need it but i am seriously thinking of getting it.

I almost went that route as well, I see alot of rock gardens here in the az canyons. I've been running the ballistic fab pinion guard & decided that was plenty good then I just rotated the axle up & welded in the new spring perches at 2° fully loaded. I carry alot of fuel, gear & rock protection so I made sure that was all on when the angle was set. Even with 6" of lift & a one inch body lift I'm still squatting pretty good fully loaded

I put the Currie chp in about 6 months ago, it works great. I have 5.5 lift with aod and my drive line angles were not acceptable even after shimming the perches. I had the locker all ready so the price wasn't to bad for the case and gears. The hi9 looks and sounds good, plus the price ain't bad for a full set up. I would go with the hi9 just for the added strength, if you really think u need it. But any hi pinion u get will solve the dl angle issue u are having plus it will get that pinion out of the rocks.

If you need a high pinion, and plan on driving it on the street go with the hi9.

Running one for many years.
No complaints.
Worth the $.
I don't sell them and don't get any discount.
Just a great product.
