Cast iron would only be part of the solution.
No tukr, it is "housing flex" that causes the teeth to be stripped from the ring gear.
However, it is a 7.25 inch ring gear. Waaaay to small for a 5K lb + 4x4.
I would not put a locker in a 7.25 inch front diff. Needs to be at least 8.0 and even then you have to be really careful.
I'm not sure a front locker is even needed. I've never, to this point been in a situation where someone said, "Hey Beebs, if you had a front locker, you could have stomped that obstacle".
