have a good rear end narrowed down, your only as strong as your weakest link I used to run a 8 3/4 mopar with 30spline moser axels, my wifes s10 has my third member and she now has a another mopar, my s10 blazer now has a dana 60 40 spline and of course a ford 9" would be a good choise and a good strong 12 bolt chev would also work
