welding rear diff

[jezzaGQ]

hey just wondering if its possible to weld up (and lock) the rear lsd? as im pulling mine out for a reshim this weekend but got thinking if this is possible might be abit easier.... Anyone out there done this before?

Don't you need an open to weld it? Don't think an lsd is weldable?

Dont weld it, just shim it up so it is nice and tight. I run a really tight LSD in the rear of my comp truck and love it. Best $10 I ever spent.

I made my own shim out of sum plate bout 1.5mm thick. I ended up with a rear locker it is solid any time you use any throttle, but if you just roll though corners it will stay open.

To answer your question it is easy to weld up a LSD or non LSD centre , there are a shit load of them out there, probably more than some people would think, mainly in the hilux area.

I also reccommend just reshimming the LSD or going for a ARB or Lokka when its within your budget , welded centres are okay but you cant beat a proper locker.
