Run a TA Performance girdle cover with preload bolts or similar. This will improve housing strength and keep the caps from walking around.

Aluminum yoke? Not on your life. Maybe on a full on lightweight race car, but for a typical 3rd gen I'd stay stock. If the seal surface is trashed a new yoke is about $90. Worth it to keep a puddle from forming on the floor, or in the driveway.

Yeah, I'm sure you can get the covers in JEGS, Summit, etc. Just amke sure that they have the preload bolts, and it isn't just an aluminum dress up cover.
