Guys has any 1 got pics of how the diff is welded up I am feeling a bit naughty

 

Google image there is loads

 

cant be arsed googling lol

 

would of been quicker

 

Reckon it would off lol

 

Here are some pics of the welded diff I used in the red sapphire in my sig.

 

should really have a plate put in like this then fully welded up, much stronger

 

Yeah I am feeling abit naughty now for sure

 

Def do it with a plate... and a proper strong welder. Will be no hassle then.
Its the half arsed jobs that give them a bad name (oh, and the people who can't drive with a locked diff obviously, lol).

 

Ive gone thick, why do people weld these up again? i cant remember!

 

Drifting

 

what are they actually like to use one the road? i cant drift by the way, best i start learning QUICK

 

I had one in my old saph for 2 years. indestructible. great fun for arse out. and peanuts to do.

but crap when turning in tight spaces, parking etc.

and i found it difficult to donut in small spaces with it. maybe i needed more practice but was great for general drifting around.

Oh and it made the car rubbish at taking fast corners without being twitchy but what do you expect.

 

I do them like above. Weld the gears together and also the side gears to the centre casing. Welding in a plate is no better.
Also TIG is the way to do it. Mig can leave lots of bits and takes ages to clean them out.
Ran my 7 1/2" welder for 7 years now and still going.

 

i have a cossie up on standas with a unknown/broken diff maybe ,all i know is you would have to be sansom to turn the wheels ,is this normal on a welded diff or does it sound broken

cant be arsed opening it up atm lol

 

usually turn freely, sound broken, James!

 

cheers dan ,i was hoping it was welded lol

 

Sure its not in gear?! ha
One's i've tried have been BMW ones. Both turned freely.

 

im pretty sure dan ,cause its on the floor beside it lol

 

Hmm, i'll give you the benefit of the doubt, then!

 

i will check anyway dan

 

They're great on the road. I've done silly speeds on track too 100% gripping with them. Never seen any problem. Not even that bad when manoeuvring, just some skipping, but looks cool as fuck!
Remember the likes of the RS500 BTCC cars sometimes ran locked diffs, never did them any harm!

 

ive nearly worn out a pair of rear tyres on my e36 and they've only been on a week been twice on my luchbreak today

3 times on xmas day, twice on boxing day and xmas eve

 

diff is whining now tho

 

Lol turn ure stereo up mate

 

i dont even bother with the stereo anymore as i prefer to hear the engine and my passengers screaming

 

Lmao

Wot you gonna be like in the anti lagged saph
