Brilliant.

welded front diffs are hack. they suck 99% of the time. Weld the rear and pit a lock right or something on the front.

Why wreck a good diff when you can get a lockright for under 300 bucks and it will be so much better. ;) ;)

X 2....Or fit a mini spool* for $120 and you can always return it to stock or fit a locker later.

(*) mini spools are only available for rear diffs.
