Eaton is what I use on most of my builds. I haven't had too many issues and most have been due to installation mistakes.
Axles are fine, weak point on that rear will be your pinion. Do a gear, posi swap with new bearings should carry your build.


Just a bit of insite to explain my comment on value.
Keep receipts on everything. Problem is if you happen to total the car its worth can be determined by the insurance company. With receipts and an appraisal you will have a fighting chance.

I was hit in my 71 Barracuda 10 years ago and they tried to total it cause they did not see the worth of the car. There was no worth that they could research so they estimated the car using a 71 Duster as an equal. Worth $1200 in their eyes. The cost of the grill and fender totalled the car. I was able to fight it listing cars recently sold at auction.

I could have avoided the whole fiasco by having an appraisal on it prior. Im still growing hair on my head from that mess.
