Get me a welder and I'll do it for you. I'm in Worcester.

probably had a vlsd or an lsd to begin with.

harry should be able to give you some input on how he likes/dislikes his welded diff. i found they like to push.

anyway welcome
aaron_toto
Yeah the open diff's can be welded but you cant with the vlsd. cheers skinny i may have to hold you too that haha !! and thanks for the welcomes smile.gif

ya, i have a welded 1.6 open diff.

worked really well for the 2 drift days i have done.
its cheap, predictable and offers 100% lock.

other than drift days, i wouldn't want one.

i daily'd with mine for over a year maybe and it is just really annoying. Your car will hop/shake/chirp whenever you turn.

I also did not like it for grip driving. i did an autocross with it and like robbie said, it made my car want to push (understeer) at turn in.
Its also hard to say smooth if you are grip driving with a welded because your car will hop/shake/chirp during turning and upset the balance.
