The only weakness in a H rear end is wear from thousands of hours in the field doing work. They are plenty stout to hold up to a V-8 car engine putting around doing loader chores. Think about it guys, if a 9 inch ford rear end can hold up in a 3000 pound drag car with slicks and 500 horsepower with a 6000 rpm launch dont you think a 1500 pound cast iron rear end with those beefy gears and axles and bearings can hold up to a small block ford motor idling around the farm? They use M's all the time with V-8 motors for pulling and they are just a real heavy duty H when you get down to it and they have very few problems tearing out the rear ends. I know you are turning big tires and they are geared down and the torque is tremendous but I believe they are plenty stout for just about any v-6 or v-8 car engine. Later.
