Does anyone know what the specs are of the Strange 12-bolt Eaton HD Posi? Is it a 22-clutch, 800lbs spring setup? Or something like 16-clutch, 400lbs springs? What makes it HD? The 33-spline?

Strange's website is garbage.

I don't know anything about that but I loved my Trutrac. Just sold it on ebay actually, someone got a good deal.

What'd you upgrade to? Wavetrac? Spool?

Eaton doesn't make the Strange Posi. Their site shows Yukon. But I believe it's Strange doing it now. I imagine it's the big boy setup with 800lbs springs.

Yeah I went to a strange LW steel spool. The trutrac was awesome though, smooth delivery around corners, even black marks on the street, handled the drag launches no problem.....zero complaints.

I was looking into it... problem is now it's built in China. So it's not like it used to be. The Eaton type deal is good tho.

I just really like the Strange housing. I know everyone says 9" or S60 whatever, but I don't want the weight, the parasitic loss, or to have to order a new driveshaft or hack up my torque arm to make it work.

Smart man. Everyone is so quick to jump on the s60 and 9 inch bandwagon. Truth is, you'll be fastest with a 10 bolt. Problem is it may not hold together forever. Get the lightest rear end that will hold together, and the 12 bolt fits that bill for a ton of people. I was aware the TrueTrac was made in china, but it still seems to be pretty reliable. The guys on the truck forums love them.

Well, I grenaded my 10-bolt the very first time I hooked... in an automatic. But then again, I have everything else upgraded. So nothing else gives. I kinda stacked the deck against the crappy 10-bolt.

I don't wanna toot my own horn, but none of my 10 bolts have broken. I mean none of the about 20 I've built. Did one for a guy a while back and he sold the car, guy turbos the car and runs 9s and never changed the rear end. I think because they are being pushed to their limit, bearing tolerances are very critical.....Meaning a freshly put together 10 bolt with good gears and tight tolerances is a hell of a lot stronger then people give it credit for.

Mine was old and stock.

I just sold off my old 10 bolt. Been hanging onto it for a couple years. Sold it to a guy that broke his, m6 car, and he was a little nervous about breaking another. I told him don't be afraid, hell try to break it, and if it ever gives you any trouble you call me up. So yeah, I'm not a 10 bolt hater by any means.

800# springs in an Eaton or Yukon Posi will act like a locker!!
