Welded diff?
Re: Welded diff?
dont worry about your english its alot better than some english people
and it depends what you want the car to do it
welding the diff is mainly done for drifting but can do alot in other forums of motor sport
ive been running one in my daily 1.4 for about 4months now and its not a problem not broke a thing
and it gets abused daily hope that helps

A lot of thanks for your answer
I have bouhgt the car to learn to make drift, but now volvo likes me a lot. I want to use the car in asfalt and I am thinking about to make a rally car wiht it, wiht a 2.0 engine from a R21 or similar.
Actualy I use the car sometimes to go to work, but I have other 2 cars, it isn´t a problem.
Any other opinion?
Best regards, Rubén.

Nicely put! I had a daily with a welded one, loved it!
Re: Welded diff?
thats the best way of putting it relay just got out and do it
after all its not a hard job taking the diff out
but mines bin in a daily for ages now and all ive noticed is the drive shaft bolts come lose but thats it in about 4 months of
hard use most days and thats lowered with land rover shocks
