I personally think just the weld on strip is plenty.
My biggest concern would be continued hits to the diff guard would result in damaged radius arm bolts.
Who sells the weld on strip, I haven't seen those?
I got mine from off road armoury.
I do not think they sell them anymore.
Maybe Rockwatt/RAM could make you something similar?

Would you not be worried about the bottom of the diff housing?
Or is it just the front that is the weak spot?

Yes that's plenty unless of course you plan on bashing into rocks constantly in that case you have the wrong axles
