Strengthening the 10 Bolt.... Ideas?

I am going with a Ratech solid spacer as opposed to the crush sleeve unless anyone knows good reason not to. anyone know a link to an install for this? I have been told it is fairly easy and does not require resetting the grears?

Also, after doing the solid spacer would I still benefit from a girdle and stud kit?

How much rear GM additive should I add when I change my fluid?

any other cheap things that your slightly above average diy person can replace in the rearend?

girdle and stud kit will help

4oz of additive i beleive is all that is needed

the higher the gear ratio (numerically that is...ie...4.10) the smaller the teeth on the ring, therefor the weaker.
