You dont need to strengthen the prop, but renewing your engine/gearbox mounts so that the prop stays well aligned would be worth the effort IMO.
They usually shred because theyre not alligned propper, is the general consensus these days.
Pm me if youd like a v3m decal.
Theres a thread in the FS section with prices etc.

Why bother - you said you had one before with a welded diff and you hated it?
