The ones that come in a 12 bolt!
Seriously, Richmonds have the reputation of being the strongest, but they all break in a 10 bolt.

USGear/Strange, Precision or OE (which just happen to be from the USG/Precision dies.)

just pulled it apart and the ring gear was missing 5 or 6 teeth. thats ok cause thats all part of the game. i called jegs and they said for me to send them back and they would look at them and if it was the metals they would send me anew set which would be awsome.

Doubt they will, if you are ripping teeth off a richmond gear set it is probably time to upgrade the rear end. They are definately among the strongest gears, just tend to be the among the noisiest also.
