I am in the process of narrowing a C Body 8 3/4. I have a few choices in housing ends the shop is offering me. For those of you that have modified your differential housings with new ends or purchased a new differential, have you used the Mopar ends with green axle bearings or have you chosen the Ford ends to use a Ford bearing, either their equivalent of the green bearing or their tapered roller bearings? If you used the Ford ends, how have they worked for you?

This will be on a street driven car with lots of cornering.
 
If a lot of cornering is involved, I would go with the tapered rollers myself.
 
I have reused the ends I cut off of every 8 3/4 I have narrowed. I also use the factory tapered bearings if possable
