Welded works well for cheap. Other then that any aftermarket 2-way is going to require you to pull out the diff housing, take out the open diff, install the new diff, then be sure to shim it properly so the gears mesh prefect. If you dont shim it correctly then itll wear out the diff really quick, its best to have it installed by a professional once you get the housing out of the car.

VLSD's are just plain worthless IMHO so dont even bother
