        Width and BP are going to be different to start, why 9 inch?
        you could buy an 8.25 29spline for 50-100$

            Pretty tough, especially 29 spline models (97 and newer?) What size tires are you running and what is your normal terrain? When going much bigger than 35" tires your D30 front will become an issue long before the 8.25 will.

                29spl 8.25 will be plenty strong for 33's.
