I work on my chest first which includes a total of 9 sets of bench press, incline/decline press, pec flys, dumbell bench press. I usually rotate each week doing 3 of those exercises. After i finish that, train my triceps for 9 sets doing skullcrushers, close grip bench press, extensions, pulldowns, etc for 4 to 8 reps for each set. Is 9 sets after my chest workout a good amount to work on my triceps, or do i need to go higher, or lower?

the only chest exercises that you need to do is 3x20 of DB fly. Then maybe do 5 sets of triceps kickbacks and the one where you lift it over your head and back down

You're doing too much, You are working out your triceps when you are doing flat bench press and incline bench press so there is no point in doing another 9set for triceps. I say 3sets of dips and 2sets of skullcrushers.

Kinda overkill with your workout ... either you're not going hard enough on your first couple of sets, or you're just doing it wrong.
