Rear end I am buying a new rear end for my 2002 ss. I decided to go with strange instead of moser bc i was told that strange had a lil bit of a stronger product. Im not sure if i wanna go with the strange 12 bolt (its what i am leaning towards) or the dana 60. If you need any other info and ill give it to you. BUt which one do yall perfer?

Ummm... I would still recommend the Moser 9" over anything due to the TQ arm mount. There are other preferences, but with the strange 60 you will need a new driveshaft, and the 12-bolt's regardless of the manufactuer are said to whine after a few hard launches and the TQ arm bolts come notoriously loose after a while.

if you look at the section titled "gears and axles" under the heading "chassis, suspension, appearance" there are a couple of faqs and countless topics that cover this topic.

Moser is a Ford 9". They modify the rear and provide the proper axle length and TQ Arm bracket for our cars.
Trust me I just went through this whole process. Like mentioned before reference the gears and axles section.

12-bolts are fine. I've had my Moser 12-bolt for about 6 years now and had zero problems.
My buddy Powell went 8.8's on his and still is fine. The 12-bolt ring gear is 8.75" and the 9" is well......9". So we're talking only an 1/8" on either side for a total of only 1/4" bigger.
The tq arm bolts just need a little locktite and keep an eye on them after the 1st install.
Peace,
Craig.
