"10 bolt axles get a bad rap"
Which one is it?
The 9.5 is tough enough that often you can just find one and install it. Sure, check the brakes.
Nobody is suggesting that every hobbyist knows how to build a rear end. Many can install a locker, though. If most of the enthusiasts you know don't know how to work on their own vehicles, you don't know enthusiasts, you just know people with vehicles.
You can quit defending the weak-ass 10 bolt. It's a differential, not your mother.
