which ones do you prefer and why?
Mark Williams is not an option, there splines dont line up with a strange spool.
I've used both Moser and Strange before but want to know why Strange costs more than Moser, Whats the difference?
i'm ordering a new set tomorrow.

I have Moser and love them. Never had Strange axles but I do have thier spool.

The Mosers are agreat axle and they do alot to support the racers. They have been sponsoring a great program at Norwlk for the last couple years so that would be a main reason why they would get my vote.

I've got strange in it now but I plan on ordering a new
set of axles here shortly(the splines on mine are twisted
pretty good) and I'm not sure whos I'll get this time,
to me they are pretty much the same.... like you I
cant go with MW due to the spool

I used to run Strange axles,and after having one break,and a call to Strange ,my opinion of them went way downhill.I assumed I would have to pay something and that did not bother me,but it took around 12 days to get my axle,so I missed an extra week of racing when I was doing well in the points.
I bought all Moser stuff the last time,and when first ordering and going back to get axles cut and resplined,I have had excellent service.Both times I have had my parts in just a couple of days.That can mean a world of difference sometimes.

For what it`s worth , Strange . I`ve run them for years in my Dana and have just replaced them due to twist (16 years ) with new Strange units . Ordered them through Bear`s no hassle there either.

I had an issue when I took the Dana 60 to another builder to have the caliper plates installed.. He cut the CRAP out of them to try and fit them ( when you didn't have to cut them at all) and STRANGE gave me a new set of plates for free.. I told them that someone else cut them up and I would gladly pay for replacements... They were really helpful and EXPLAINED the process and helped out... VERY GOOD COMPANY to deal with.... Clean enviornment,, they took care of the shop AND their customers...

Although MW does have their specific splines, they will make axles with OE type splines just like Moser and Strange.

I think they're both great companies.

I bought a set of axles from Moser; service was great, shipping was fast and the cost was reasonable. The axles haave been trouble free.

I run both of the two companys Moser Axles and Strange Spool 35 spline stuff. Moser was a great buy, awsome stuff and great customer service..

Exactly. Try to drill and tap a Strange flange for 5/8" studs sometime. Then try a Moser. You'll see the difference.

Strange and Mark Williams also make Street/Strip axles, but for the price and quality, I prefer Dutchman.

Strange.

My Horizon still has the original Strange axles that Herb McCandless installed in 1981 when he built the car.
