From my research most guys breaking rears/sheering teeth 1) didn't run a cover to help with flex, and 2) ran tall gears (4.10+). The taller gears have more teeth and because of that are thinner. The short gears are thicker and handle the flex placed on the tips better when flex happens. Again, this is just from what I've read from others who have pushed these rears.
