Has anyone welded the front end (making the diff locked) on their dd? How did it turn out?
Also on a side note, why are lockers and limited slips so expensive for these trucks? It seems that companys want twice for what I paid for the one in my super duty I used to have.
 
Daily driver? If so, keep it open or go with an air/electric locker.
 
welding up your diff can be very dangerous.... just buy the proper equipment or go to a junk yard and find one that way
 
My 95 ford has the front diff welded but I have lockouts only locked it in offroad
 
i welded up the front open diff on my dana 60 in my suzuki samaria mud truck. i had a 500 hp 388 sbc running 6.17 gears...44 swampers, i broke 2 short side axles in no time, i switched to a detroit locker and never broke another axle..., keep your eye on ebay they come up for sale fairly often...rm
