Default axel question

ok, im trying to piece together my rear end. im going with the MT dr's and 373 gears. i was told to do the axels to avoid snapping them on the launch. instead of switching to a 31 spline axel and alternate differential, i was wondering if it would be worth changing to a moser 28 spline axel. i know the 31 spline would obviously be stronger, but would i still get extra strength changing to a moser 28 spline rather than keeping the stock axels? im trying to reinforce the rear end without spending $1000 on it, i dont think ill end up going to the track enough to necessarily need a $1000 rear end, but itd be comforting to have some extra support.

+1, I just spent almost $1000 ordering my 4.10s and 31 spline setup, but it's well worth not having to worry about it IMO.
