Will it hold? The rear that is.

I currently have on order a Strange 12 bolt, 3.73's Eaton Super strength posi with 33 spline axles and a support cover. I want to launch at like 4k with a 150 shot of nitrous. Do you think the rear will hold up. Also what do you think the stock drive shaft/clutch will do. I have MT e/t street radials.

The weak point on a 12 bolt is the crush sleeve. If you replace that and keep them full of fluid they kick ***.

Can you guys elaborate a little on the solid spacer. Where can I get one and any directions on putting it in? Thanks

If you have an order ,in just ask them to replace the pinion chrush sleeve. With a 'chrome moly' tube mic'd to the same length. This will space the bearing and the yoke, w/o chrushing in.
