Beef up rear end for drag racing

What are some other ways that you can do to make the rear end on a fd stronger,

Trailing arms,
Toe links,
Harder diff brushing,

I rememeber something about welding reinforcement brackets onto the diff gear itself.

Check the 3rd gen section. Vosko supposedly has a bulletproof tranny/rear end. He started with a TII diff with an extra brace, I think. New pillow bushings, along with the trailing and toe links is also part of the equation.

PM RX_Rotary, he sells a really nice differential brace, that eliminates almost all wheel hop as well as saving your diff. from those 6000rpm launches. Depending on how mch power you have race axels might be a option as well.
