This has been dreamed about for years. It's physically impossible to make a 7.5" ring gear 10 bolt strong. Midwest Chassis has one of the most affordable custom tailored rear ends you'll find. The good news is there are plenty of cheap 10 bolts for sale.....

Weld the axle tubes to the center section, t/a cover, richmond gears, good center or spool, moser axles, billet yoke, and im surprised no one has said to get c-clip eliminators. Get rid of the c-clips.

"Stronger", yes. "Strong enough", you already got the advice.
The more you go up in gear ratio, the more grief you put on
the axles, the Torsen chunk and the fewer gear teeth meshed
to share the load.

the best way i have seen to save a 7.5, go with the suggestions above, and diet. the ones who take sh*t tons of weight out of the car seem to last forever. just my .02
