Steering Wheel Boss

Just wondering if anyone has ever got the dimensions of the bolts from a steering wheel boss?
Not only from Boss to wheel, but boss to rack, if that's what you wanna call it :P
Could come in handy for people that may make there own..

Welded Differential.. Causes problems??

Has anyone with a welded differential on there 300's had any sort of problems, like things winding up and breaking, going through tyres like nothing etc etc.

And would anyone say it would be ok to use as an everyday car?
