welded diff, pointers
yeah im sick of my gay open diff and i dont feel like laying out some cash for an lsd. i have a spare blown hf tranny i can practice this on so thats not a big deal.
question is that is there any special way to go about this that works best? anyone have pics of a diff that they welded?

ok, I'm agaisnt welded diff's.......
but if your gonna do it, start it off right by inserting inner axle cups into the diff and then preheating to 300 degrees for one hour before starting to weld.
BTW, make sure to remove the bearings and speedo gear before preheating of welding, they won't survive.

Bump.
Any one here actully run a welded diff? I have a spare tranny with a blown diff, and my car is basicly a weekend/track car only.
Is it safe at highway speeds around corners? Or is there allways a wheel trying to break loose?
I dont care about parking.
