A girdle, studs will help keep the caps from flexing, and high gear like a 3.42, 3.23 will give a larger pinion with more contact area. Are the axles stock?

yes stock axles, but the only thing that would held up better is if they made a race gear instead of a street gear.

Yea, it does suck... and theres no way around it!

The biggest thing i hate is the lexan!

If you want to keep the brakes and 6bolt lugs just go with the 14bolt 6lug, thats as simple as it will get.
My buddy with his Duramax truck is pushing over 1K lbs of TQ and his is holding like a champ!
