yeah and thats the most dangerous thing you can do to a differential . Spider gears are not meant to be heated up like that . buddy did his s10. Didnt last 1 month before the rear broke . I am thinking about trying it out on my spare f series . It doesnt have 5th or reverse . But all the work on swapping it out jst seems pointless. theres no way that this would last any longer than welding the gears on a rear wheel drive .

no more than a quiafe LSD . And I think if your going to launch it off the line . The shit will just break right there All that work to rev the car up and go no where. Maybe you can use jbweld to lock the spider gears together. Seems like its holding the cover plate in . Damn rednecks , haha

I am all for the low budget performance , But some things I believe in paying for the right parts. If your riding on a welded diff. and everything is great . HATS OFF TO YA . Just wont do it my ride. I ll pay for the diff. I have a spare transmission that I was just going to play around with , I ll let you know how it turns out , Got any tips for welding a front wheel drive.

If properly done, a welded diff is a good mod for somebody who used their car for either drag racing or drifting, and does not daily drive it.
A properly welded diff will be rock solid.
BTW, i was watching the speed channel last weekend, it was a PINK's special where they were filming drag races at a local track somewhere.
Some moron blew the final drive right out of his chevy blazer while doing a burnout . . .i can only attribute that to shady workmanship like what was done in the main post here lol.
