TeraFlex and Evo are both popular, and there was a post just recently about a new kit with an integrated truss that may be worth a look. (I don't recall who makes it though?) I like the Bombshell kit from Rockslide Engineering, but may be a bit overkill for most peoples needs. How far you go just depends on your budget and opinion on what is needed.

Looking at the Evo website they claim to strengthen the axle by 30% but like that Evo incorporates seals on their sleeves now whether that makes a difference I don't no.

Two companies claim a 30% increase for their inner sleeves, two others claim a 59% and a 60% increase. I would guess that it is more a matter of how they are being tested, rather than an actual 30% difference in strength. Probably need to talk to each specific mfg to get better info on that.
