                  Just make sure to get good lash between the ring gear and the pinion before tacking it up.

                      Those are some expert welds.

                      Be sure to use 21-guage soldor.

                                  It's real simple, just follow the example there. It's impossible to screw up unless you don't get enough weld in there. Just go at it and don't stop til it feels solid. Replace the cover and try out your new welded diff.

                                                  open up your diff....look at it...you'll see why it won't work the way it is done in that picture.

                                                  I keep forgetting this is r3v, and not a helpful tech forum.

                                                      Would read again. Think about how a diff works..
