The Strange S60 is much stronger and slightly heavier. The biggest advantage of the S60 is it's torque arm mount. The S60 TA mount uses two through bolts just like the stock 10-bolt. This is superior to the Moser 12-bolt TA mount which uses four short bolts into threads in the iron housing. The Moser TA mounts need frequent attention (tightening).

the s60 is by far the best bang for the buck in a bolt-in rearend. it is available with 3ch abs as well, and is far superior to any 12 bolt. the S60 is actually less cost than the 12 bolt anyway... comes standard with 35 spline axles and the truetrac diff unit, factory style bracketry, sway bar mounts and end link kits, driveshaft u-bolts and Lucas gear oil are supplied even! I have the best deal on the S60 or any rearend for that matter. pm me or call for a quote.

S60 ftw over 9" or 12 bolt imho.
Flame away.
Actually the 9" is better if you want to change gears often. But if you don't I like the Dana better. It's also absolutely no hassle at all it's a direct bolt in (you just need 4 bolts and 4 nuts for the swaybar from a hardware store). You do also need a new driveshaft, but why make the driveshaft your weak link?

Best part about the s60 is it was a DIRECT BOLT IN! By myself, it took me 5 hours to remove old diff and have s60 in and done... keeping in mind I've never done the job before either.

The Moser nine inch is a direct bolt in, you will need a conversion u joint - Napa 447. Here is a link to it and there are installation instructions at the link as well. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com....html?item=145 Moser ships these rears two days after the order is received. Bob
