99% of the time I don't even know it's there. Very seldom you will like a clunk when it is locking up. The peace of mind that this rear has given me is worth it's weight in gold. Now I can rev to 4,000 rpm or more and dump the clutch without worrying about nuking the rear. I'll never consider any other kind of rear.Get Moser not Strange.

I would not buy anything from Strange. I got my center section from them, it howled so loud you could not drive the car. They rebuilt it after I threatened to go to the Consumer Products Safety Commission. The carrier bearings were over tightened this time and I had to have it rebuilt locally. I don't think there is anything wrong with the parts just the morons doing the assembly.
12 bolts just as good as 9" yo.... 
just as good''';

I'm gonna chime as the only one supporting the Strange 12 bolt.
I'll be ordering one this winter with 4 channel and 3.42 or 3.73's.
I just can't bring myself to order a 9" because I really don't need anything that big. I do hit the track but I don't plan to make crazy amounts of power.

I'm going to go with a 9" most likely.
If you've ever set up a 9", you know why the 9" is most popular. They are a BREEZE to set up, and the removable center section is the cats meow.
If up to it, a full swap in a half hour is easily achievable. They are strong as ****, and take whatever most of us can throw at them.
Sure some of them fail from time to time. It has a lot to do with proper setup. That pic above blows my mind. How the hell did you do that?
The downfalls are that it's heavier than a 12 bolt, and takes up more space in the rear of our cars. Something which there isn't a lot of for exhaust, etc. Still very workable though.
I just love the design of the Ford 9"...
