You can always add more bracing than i did. Obviously I have the tubes welded, and 9" ends with c-clip eliminators because if you're doing the work you may as well make sure its good to go. If you call yukon gear and want a set oft heir 31 splines, narrow it 2 7/8s on the long side they will sell you the kit with two short side axles like they did for me a few years ago.
