I found myself in a similar spot with my current project. The Moser rep I worked with pointed out that the cost of a 35 spline 9" with all the upgrades and a Truetrac diff was a bit less than the best 12 bolt they could build, while being far stronger and offering easier paths to good rear brakes. I have no regrets. If you can get past the appearance and/or stigma, go with a 9". Quick Performance would be a better budget option than Moser, but I've never dealt with them.
