I plan on doing this exact set up as well, with new eaton posi, new gears, with the LPW Kit, yes i know I'm an automatic but it's more of an insurance. i dont mind spending the money if it'll help it. still way less than a 12-9 bolt lol this car is more street/daily driver more than a track car. but this car was babied before it got to me, very well taken care of, previous owner probably put 20,000 miles on it in 10 years, garage kept. would anyone think I should still buy new axles? if so...what kind? *car had 93,000 miles on it, all stock when I got it, has 115,000 now*

I think I'll got the TA girdle route and give her one more try...

Mine is doing well, but I use mine for 99% street cruising - not a daily driver.
I also dropped down to 3.23 gears from 3.73's. The 3.23's gear set is a little bit thicker.
IMO the more complete the package the less likely the 10 bolt will break even after installing the LPW braces and girdle. You also need to install a solid pinion spacer along with a good pan hard bar, LCA's, and aftermarket torque arm to lessen the risk of breakage.
