Daily Driving A Welded Diff - THINGS YOU MUST KNOW!

[@jacklyons2557]

The unalloyed joy you take in even small things -- chirping tires -- is very entertaining. Thanks for posting.

[@hayden6056]

I find you have more grip in the rain under standard circumstances with a locker. I also laugh at everyone who goes on about how hard the car will be to drive. My ex (not a car girl at all ) thought it was hillarious when her Ute was broken so I lent her the missile to go to an agricultural show. She said she's never stopped twenty people by trying to reverse a trailer before. Had no idea what everyone was looking at as she can reverse a trailer. She realised everyone was listening to the locker. Half were like what's wrong with that car other half were like fuck yeah. A 4 foot 11, 50 something kilo bird in a vs with 4.11's , t5, a cam and trailer full of goats chirping around 😂 She was worried about borrowing came back and was like. " I dno what everyone complains about. It absolutely pissed down and proper utes were getting stuck. It covered the trailer in mud but I just put it in second and crawled out of there at about 1500 rpm after everyone told me I couldn't. "

The bad - tire wear, axle twist, "interesting" on slippery surfaces, harder on drive line parts, once welded you diff is not serviceable.. you can't unweld it. The good? Got a door slammer with a hot engine? Do it! Great off the line traction and like dude said, easy drifting fun. My experience - My 84' Cutless got about 3500 miles before my axles started looking like twizzlers.

Also it’s hard to find a good working lsd for an old falcon these days it’s much better to lock the diff as it guarantees both wheels to spin 100% of the time and will never single out

[@ItsJayyycc]

i have one on my skyline, and the attention that it gets man its alot, when you are certain that you arnt going to skid the car for an amount of time, you can run radials, the cherping is not as bad if you want to keep a lower profile (kinda hard with a straight piped car), but it will stress the components and understeer is increased more than if you had stockies on.

[@agamsidhu01]

All mighty au falcon!

I didn't learn anything new but I'll still chuck a like for my boi.. ;)

[@joshuamartin3483]

Another thing you should’ve mentioned with an LSD when you tried to Drift it they can play with you Twin single twin and make it spin out If you can’t catch it 👌🏿👍🏿

[@tubraynz2925]

get yourself some nolathane bushes because the spool is gonna chew up your stock bushes and will end up snaking all over the road when on and off power... besides that enjoy the skids

[@HazeyAuto]

Locking differential. Best of everything. Or an ARB Air Locker if you want to be fancy.

[@Crunchy_Brunchy]

If you want more stability you need to weld the suspension too, get rid of that useless bouncing of the springs. And if you're tired of using up tires, just use wooden wheels, the good old fashioned way.

[@thyvy6065]

Im back again. Time stamp 0:09 qnd ive already liked because its Rex and all his videos are nothing short of perfect.

[@Mainroad.Manjis101]

I watched a video of another bloke with an AU ute (Howlers Garage) and he spent a lot of time installing a mini spool. It just seems like spools aren’t worth it. They are “reversible”, but take a lot of effort to install + uninstall compared to just welding it. The diffs are easy to find as they are in AU’s and BA’s also. I reckon weld the diff and if you get sick of it just get a cheap diff centre from the wreckers/fb marketplace that isn’t welded and put that in the car.

[@Vtertdfgwrth5ybdfasgagadfg]

In an nb miata, my daily wheels get about 3500 to 4000 miles before the rears need changing. I only do about 3000 miles a year so its not bad at all.

[@PeterF12]

thanks for the info, helps for when I get a car and maybe a drift car

[@purgatorysplayground7501]

I’m going back on stocks so I can daily a welded diff. Tires for my aftermarket wheels are $250 each where my sticks I can get for $25 each

[@user-wu6qb2xl1c]

if you're still reading comments, can the mini spool be taken in and out at will?

[@OPyamumsyadad]

Funny you post this now Rex because I just bought an R180 beefy rear diff for the Forester and I’m going to weld the centre diff AND the rear diff and go rear wheel drive.

[@internetzee9407]

great explanation

My limited slip in my crown Vic won’t spin both wheels around a corner but will spin both in a straight line. Can you weld an LSD?

[@williamharry4842]

Just curious, does it gonna bent the rod that connects the diff to the wheels?

[@baileystephenss]

why do most people weld they’re diffs and not just put a mini spool in

[@painistemporary4855]

Who have ride one sport quad will understand 😎

[@flamrow1117]

Bought a e36 328i and I can barely find any open differentials at all. Closest one is wrong ratio 2.93 and I want a 3.15 but I only find new ones with LSD for around $2600~ Welding it is. Also it’s not like I want to weld it but the gears are about ti give up and if I weld them they’ll won’t break, according to the mechanic.

[@johanfrags7707]

Did you weld it? How does it drive and drift?

[@nate7243]

what he said^

[@flamrow1117]

@@nate7243 Well the car has been torn down since late October so I haven't even touched it yet but if you wait maybe 2 months more and I may be able to tell you how it is to drive. For context I needed to replace the engine block for the dumbest reason known to man. The right mount to the gearbox on the block is broken. because of that the transmission has problems too and then there's the diff. I'm already $4000 into the engine so life's painful.

[@nate7243]

[@flamrow1117]

@@nate7243 update: cars runt perfectly now and passed inspection. However, yesterday I did find another diff with LSD so sadly I won’t be able to tell you how a welded diff drives. BUT if I do install one I’ll remember to come back to this comment section and tell you how it is to drive!

Lmao i did delivery driving with my Lexus gs300 with a welded diff and I went through tires every 2 weeks just driving

[@DrewsR6]

Sounds like you have a bigger problem

[@Lightmaker5]

If you want to change your tires more frequently ye you should. Your suspension and bearings will experience more stress also. More fuel waste, more stress on the gearbox. No good for a daily. Zero advantage.

This is all about exhibitionism. If you want (or need) to draw attention to yourself, try mooning. At least, the car in not liable to damage and it'll give your arse and balls an airing. Possible downside, maybe the cops might take an interest. Give it a go, guys!
