the 9.5 semi float is a great rear end, Petersons just did a huge article on it. they arnt as strong as there FF partners, but for 90% of us running 33's or 35's good luck breaking it. all the major companies make lockers, chromo axles, gears, ect for it still so no problem there. but then again the 12 bolt rear end gets a bad rap, but ive been running mine for 2 years with 37's without a single broken axle heh.

it's more about the driver than the pieces, but easier to blame the pieces...

The lack of real wheel bearings is it's only real sin in my book.

well, hate to admit it, but the alignment was horrible- corrected it, and the truck drives like new- amazing!! The good news is nothing is worn, the guys at the shop said the 47k miles on the odo has to be correct, as it all looks like new- it didn't even have a hitch on it when I got it. helps it is from Wy and Montana.
Thanks for all the help everyone. Cheers
