what is everyone doing for front ends when launching in 4wd

I am still going back and forth on 4x4 vs AWD, and need to decide on a front axle. What is everyone doing? Is it strong enough stock, or ia something like a truetrac out there for it?

Axle wise, mine is completely stock down to the cvs...well, one is an oreilys replacement because the boot was torn on the stock one. Keep the cvs level and you will spin the tires before you break it.
