Just dont do it. It isnt streetable at all.

If your car is just a track car then do what you want, just not a good idea on the street.

What do you do or plan to do with your car? There is a different type of differential for every drivers needs and budget.

I think that welding is a great temporary solution, but dont plan on keeping it that way on a street car. I had mine welded for about a month or so and its not bad, alot more enjoyable than an open diff. Over the winter im going hlsd, just the welded diff did fine till i could get the money to do the rear end right. Its not as bad as people say, atleast i didnt think it was.

This is not a great idea but I think it might be a better one than welding it and that would be get a Phantom grip. That is if you are looking for something cheap
