Is there any agreement on whether the max towing package alone comes with the 9.75" ring gear or if you have to have the max payload capacity as well? I know it is listed for the max payload package but not explicitly stated on website. I know the max towing comes with bigger brakes. I'm hoping it comes with the bigger axle assembly and ring gear as well.

What's up? Has the topic been beat to death? My truck SHOULD be here next week so I could look for a tag or a marking on the housing if someone can decipher it for me.

The 9.75 looks much more like a "D" shape.

I'm surprised no one has measured it then.

Dealer tells me the super 8.8 has zero issues unlike the 9.75. At least vs the 9.75 used to have.

That could be due to people with 9.75 are doing the towing or crazy off road stuff

Picked up my truck today and the cover sure looks like the 9.75" version.

Thanks. It's brand new, built in August. But rust is not usually an issue here in Virginia.
