That being said , I ran 35 spline Strange axles on the street for a long time with no problems. The difference is in the alloy and heat treat as I understand it. Moser is a better choice for side loading and street type impact loading. More malleable or less brittle depending on how you look at it , but I don't know what kind of hammering you'd need to fracture a Strange axle. I have 30 spline Mosers in my deal now and I am perfectly happy with them.

Mosers have a case hardening , or did anyway. Much like production axles , but with better steel. And that made them the better choice for dual use..........that is my understanding of the way the land lays , but I bought my Mosers six years ago so things may have changed.

I have ran both types on the street and hard on the track with a heavy e body. Doc also sent me a set 358 delivered, but I never used them on the street.

Enough for his combo Agreed, probably what the carrier is set up for already. If the unit needs rebuilt though now is the time to change to 35 before axles are purchased.

I believe they are around $300 plus shipping. SDG Motorsports Hellcat Demon and Redeye Supercharger CNC Porting https://www.sdgmotorsports.com/

I am aware of them......as I recall , they were pricier than Mosers when I bought mine and that was the deciding factor. They are an option for sure.

I'm happy with Moser's stuff. 67 Barracuda street car, 408, e85, 1.38 60', 6.44 @105.9 in the 1/8 mile, 10.19 @130.5 in the 1/4...so far....
