Rear-end weight difference

Anybody know how much more an 8 3/4" (open) rear weighs over a 7 1/4"?

Just wondering what is wrong with your 7.25.

Did you break it?

Lots of guys talk about going to a 8.75 in there slants,at the same time never have had a problem with there 7.25

The 7.25 rear is a much better rear then many give it credit for.(for a slant).

and will hold up to a hot little slant,if built correctly.

There is no way a 8.75 has less drag than a 7.25,period.Everything about the 8.75 is heavier,making it harder to turn.
