I'm building 2 LBs that will be force fumble types. I'm taking strength to 74 then tackling to 74 initially.

My question is, to force fumbles is strength more important or is tackling more important?

Has anyone ever tried a 100/100 tackle/strenth build?

In my opinion, and I still have a fairly young FF LB, tackling and strength are pretty equal when it comes to fumbles. However, tackling is only good for the impact on the RB. Strength is more important since it helps with breaking blocks, which you are going to need to do a lot since you are sacrificing speed/agility and keeping from being pancaked.

I have basically a hybrid built FF/Interception guy that is more experimental. I'm in the process of bringing tackling to 74 and putting all equipment on upgrades there and getting a fourth interception piece of AEQ. I'm hoping at plat he'll be around 90str/90tack/90sp

100/100 builds have almost always failed at the LB position. Strength and tackling are both moderately important, but so are speed, agility, and vision.

Go tackling before strength.

Yup LB=/=DT.

Agility is my first cap for hard hitters.
