Sorry to hear that your back is still giving you grief.
If you pull the gear out check the ends of the axle tubes where the races for the spool bearings push against and see if you see any wear on that surface. That will give you an indication if the housing is spreading when you launch the car. If you see some wear and grooving there add the brace. I think you can add that to the LPW cover that you already had. At some point we probably wont be able to get any gears for the dana's. They already only make a few ratios for them.
