    Anyone know someone to weld a diff for my cousin? He asked me this mornin but i'd no idea, i've fitted LSDs to stuff but never liked the idea of a welded diff so never did it myself, i'd give a shot at it for him but tbh I dont want to Fu*k it up so i'd be better off send him to someone who could do it properly.

    If its a road car do not weld the diff, might be okay for track use only but not for day to day use.

    Ha ha ah i know it's a complete bollix of a way to have a road car if you want it to drive in any way safely/ normally, that's why i favour a limited slip diff like i said above, an
    d I know what it's like, i drove a 1.6 saphire i got for free with the diff welded ont the road every day for two months. a bit annoying but he only wants the diff welded on this yoke for a bit of messin around, it'd be trailered everywhere anyway.

    Anyway, that doesnt really help me....

    Any ideas anyone??

    Ha ha ha very helpful... NOT! Why would you even waste your time by lookin at this thread just to say something retarded like that?
    I know several mechanics actually but none of them want to get into welding a diff. It's not exactly something most ordinary mechanics want to do.

    The point of asking this was that i was lookin for someone who'd be used to doin them and would do it properly because i'm able to weld but only alright at it, wouldnt trust myself to do it properly for him

    If you don't want advice, then don't ask for it.

    I wasted my time looking at this thread trying to help you out.

    There's a couple of guys out in kilcornan who do all that stuff I believe. Called Dreamworx. Work on a lot of modified cars, and I know they did something like that for one of the lads before. I'll pm you their number

    Well get out your Golden Pages, look up "Mechanics", Start at A and work your way right through to Z. I'm sure you'll find someone who'll do it, and you wont have to interact with tools like me, so everyone's a winner

    I'll let it go this time, but if you use abusive language another time, you'll be banned. And for a lot longer than a week
