The AMC-20 (not a Dana btw) in my AMX racecar was assembled in 1975 w/ Henrys Axles, welded tubes and perches, AMC 4.44 gears and a LH thread TwinGrip.
It has never been apart.
If you are in the 10's i'd get a 9" but, you will have to put $3k into it to fit & last.
Any good Jeep shop should be able to set up a 20.
What limited slip do you have?
Goodluck,
Ron.

Do you know if they ran the back lash a little tighter and a solid crush sleeve to keep ever thing where it should be?
I like that carrier brace.

I did not use a solid sleeve but did run back lash tighter, no brace like yours. I did weld the tubes to housing & braced up the spring mounts with the Cal-Trac's.
