Need an opinion on which rear to buy. Strange, Moser, or KTRE?
Any input would be appreciated.

If you have a extra $2500 buy the MOSER. If not, stick with what you have.

had the 9bolt originally, but gave up on it after it was rebuilt 4x.
put the 10bolt in it and know this is the second time it went. It had steel sleeve on pinion bearing and TA cover and synthetic oil. It broke because the axles were original. I don't know if I want to dump another $1100 into this rear (replace axles,carrier,bearings, gears) if its just going to give me problems down the road. I'am leaning towards the moser, Frank first in NJ said he can get it for me. any other opinions?
