Dennis, Is purchasing more hardware an option? If so, buy more RAM and continue running what you have now. It sounds like it's working, but how much more uptime are you looking for? But, if you want to rip and replace (or reconfigure) then my recommendation is to do the least complicated: Invest in a "proper" load balancer, run the web servers on physical machines, and sync or async data with clustering software to a beefed up box that is running a VM of each physical box (many-to-one). I can't directly help with the load balancer (I have a distributor that can), but can with the server hardware if the need comes up and you're not against running Supermicro.
