Moser or Strange?? - 05/17/12 10:05 PM
Strange will sell me a custom length 30 spline set of "race" axles with bearings and 3" studs for 470 bucks,
Moser will sell me a se of 30 spline custom alloy axles for 370 bucks no studs, or bearings,
Whos is better, any plus or minus remarks appreciated.

Moser for street strip , Strange for race only.
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.

Both are similar "race" application axles you just get a better deal buying the strange set up with bearings and studs.

Then Moser has changed their manufacturing or added another line.
Strange axles ( the race axles ) are through hardened.
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.

Did you contact Doc Diff, and see what his prices were? Either choice you make on the 2 you asked about will work good for your app. . 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.

I wonder'ed that myself, but figured it was an easy install without having to pull it completely down. Enough for his combo

Call cass. He can get you a better deal and they will come with bearings and 3" x .500 studs. I believe they are around $300 plus shipping.
Strange or moser either one will work. I like the machine work on the Strange stuff, but have used both. Mike Let me know if I can help!

To be honest with you guys, I havent gottent he axle out yet, but its a Dana 60 hd out of a dodge van, and according to randys ring and pinion its got either 30 or 35 axles in it.
Its a 4:10 sure grip to.
But If its a 35 ill be stoked!!

Either one will work fine, both make high quality parts. I use Moser stuff just b/c they've always been good to me and easy to deal with. Not to mention I've worked on a few very fast cars w/ Moser filled rears.

I just pulled my Moser 35 spline axles out of my 8 3/4 that I just broke (bent the housing)...the axles look as good as the day I put them in 10 years ago
. I'm happy with Moser's stuff.
