[g2ic02]

i have the version 3 and it has worked great for me. I abuse it every time i drive the car. luke is a good guy to deal with. This is a great deal for those of you on a budget.

[blu808]

Thanks for the nice words.

[ReLevent1]

Weld Loc FTW!!!

[S14zenkiQ's]

For once i acually regret being in Japan...at least I've got a nismo 2way for the time being, no rebuild would be nice though.

[cheap_sticker05]

What is the turn around time if I ship mine to you?

[slider2828]

I have weld locd v3 and it is awesome. Locd all the time and very consistent. Luke is knowledgeable and a great guy to deal with. + 12019908170!!!!

[blu808]

Thanks guys.

When i recieve the diff it will be shipped out the very next day.

Actual transit time varies on location of shipment.

[2fast4y0u]

i can ship you mine with no oil in it...is the cost still $100? of course i will pay for shipping.

[95zilvia]

Yes, it is still $100 (+$20 for me)

[blu808]

All diffs myct be shipped dry. So yes the version 4 is $100.

[khoadogg]

awesome deal! get it! best way to slide your ride... you will not regret it!

[ClubDrifter]

Good News!!!!!!!

[S14zenkiQ's]

Hey luke have you figured out if you can weld a Viscous yet? I've got an extra that I could ship, I wish I had an extra open diff. you cant beat $100 for complete predictability.

[blu808]

Well we have perfected, everything except viscous. The reason being is that we reccomend our customers sell their diffs for the $300 and take their open diff and have it welded.

Other then that we can do torsion, open, and helicle diffs without any problems.

With the clutch and viscous diffs. We have determined that the only way is to dowel pin them in 14 different spots and then weld those pins through the casing.

[DriftSpecial180]

Just a question. Since these welded diff's are always locked, how is the performance on the track (grip driving) affected?

[blu808]

Awsome. Handles like a 2 way. Still the only detriment in grip driving is that hard braking with little steering input will tend to get the ass out a little. Feels great in my opinion.

[DriftSpecial180]

Cool. Thanks for the feedback. I'll definately be looking into one.

[2fast4y0u]

i will be sending my diff as soon as i can get it out of my car. can i get the address to send this to?
also, how long is this deal going on? i certainly dont want to miss it

Jay

[monkey7]

I have a weld locd version 3 on my car (more than half a year) and it is great. I used it in many events, road race, drive hard, and it is still in perfect working order. For the price you can't beat it!

I watch Luke weld my diff, he took his time and explained why it is a long process. It wasn't a micky mouse job, he knows what he was doing.

[YoungRookie]

Hows the daily driving with these welded diffs? Is there much noise out of the differential? Im sure the one wheel hops when taking a sharp slow turn, but other then that is there really any problems with daily driving them? I am very interested in this but not sure how it will be on my daily driver

[blu808]

Shipping address is.

As for street driving. It is not as loud as a 2 way, but it does make some noise.
it also makes the skeet skeet skeet noise when making a u turn.

[i8yourfwd]

skeet skeet... weld locd FTW.. I loved mine :)

[Irukandji]

Luke is a good guy... stands behind his products. Thanks again.

[blu808]

No prob. Thanks.

[DJPimpFlex]

V3 is an Awsome diff! Grip, Drift, daily whatever! Prefer it over a VLDS, Clutch type and ofcourse open. I wont run anything different unless someone pays me! +1 for a GREAT DIFF!

[RaidenKing]

This sounds good.
Any idea on when you'll be locating any open diffs? I'd like to get in on one but don't really have an extra open diff to throw your way.

[SnakeKack]

How bad does one of these go through tires?

Also is is the car harder to turn? Like is it harder to turn left than right and the other way around?

[blu808]

I will give out a little alignment secret here. run .015 toe out on each side and it turns in like a evo, with coilovers.


Believe me you will love it.


BTW. i didnt create weld locd to sell hella shit. I created it so people who didnt have money (like myself) would be able to get a decent diff, and not worrie about shit being rebuilt or breaking.

[i8yourfwd]

Hey luke, will the Ver3 still have the lifetime warranty type thing that you had advertised on your page a while back? I'm assuming the ver4 will come with it also.

Props on a great product! I can't wait to see the FD in action @ altamont O_O

[blu808]

Yes it will. If it ever breaks just bring the diff in, and i will reweld it, or i will weld your new diff for you.

[Paul2x]

I'm very new to all of this, and I understand you can't reveal you secrets, but I take it from reading this, you can't "just" weld the whole diff. Seems a technique is nessary.

I'm just tyring to understand the lodgic....sould i say away from a diff that has been welded in no particular fashion???

thanks

-Paul

[blu808]

Well put it this way. every diff i have ever heard of being welded has broken,
Except for mine, and i have done over 100 of them.

[blu808]

Heres some more info.

[ALTRNTV]

I'm interested in a V3.

To the people who shipped out their open diff to him, how much was shipping?

[blu808]

Well just to give you guys an idea for shipping weight it is 75 pounds dry.

[s14xman]

i would really want one, but i don't have an extra diff. If you get one, can i send you the money for it? i will need it shipped, i am very serious just to let you know. If you can get one please pm me

[psychoblue]

hit me back as to where to send? :)

thanks

[blu808]

Send em to.

Thanks Luke 408-515-9598

[Jookmasta]

so just to make sure i know what im gettin myself into, if get one of these diffs, the car will act like it has a 2 way in it? just trying to rationalize or imagine how it feels to drive a car with this in it. as for tires, besides ur toe setting, anything else u recommend?

[slider2828]

Its like a 2 way always locd. There is a LOT of information ie driving impressions and idea behind the weld locd. I personally run one on my daily driver and I tell you its a lot of fun. Trust me search the tech forum and you will find a lot of information

[sc ka24e]

not very fimiliar with welded open diffs. would it be recommened for daily driving ?does it lock up during normal turning ? is it safe when its raing like its been latley here in san diego, i will be mainly dragging with occasional drift but most importaltley daily driving. lmk

[blu808]

its fine. It is literally the same feeling as a 2 way lsd.

[RWD_Bliss]

this is proably a stupid question but IF it were to brake would car still be drivable or will it leave me stranded somwhere?

[ThatGuy]

If you can break it, then there is probably something seriously wrong with your car and you shouldn't try and drive any further anyway. When it comes down to it though, if you break ANY rear diff, you're gona be stuck.

[blu808]

Havent had any break yet.

[quach]

the diff is always locked, so you spin and skip the inside tire when you make low speed turns. it drives fine in the rain so long as you dont drive like a dick, i actually prefer it in the rain since it puts less stress on my tires when i turn. i run a locd ver3 and i daily drive my car more than i drift it, and i can honestly say that if youre not gonna see yourself drifting or drag racing on a regular basis, i wouldnt bother getting one. im not trying to put down any sales or anything but a welded diff can get on your nerves if youre just daily drive with it. i go through tires faster, and parking and U turns are a pain, but for me personally the trade off was all worth it. i remember when i switched from drifting with a vlsd to the welded, it felt like i was cheating because it made drifting so much easier (and fun).

[MurdarioStomp]

i'll prolly be sending you mine soon...seems like you have a nice rep with everyone and ive been interested for a while

can i ship it removed form the pumkin for a weld V3? how much?

[blu808]

You can ship it anyway you would like. I reccomend shipping it out of the pumpkin to save shipping cost. If you need to ship it with the pumpkin, then thats fine as well.

Also somthing to think about, is you will need to reset the gear lash if you remove it from the pumpkin.


Either way.


Thanks and if you have any questions at all feel free to give me a call.

[Sonic Motor]

hey luke, im running on your version 3, its awesome :)

I got some friends who wanna get their diffs welded. If I shipped you 5 open diffs +100 money order, would you ship 3 back to me welded? And you can keep the other 2. I'm so cal.

Let me know via PM

thanks,
J

[blu808]

Thanks for the comment. I will think about that offer today and let ya know.

Thanks.

[rms13kid]

this deal sounds great. I'd like to know how long the offer will last. I'll definitely send one your way once i manage to pick up an open diff. So, send $100 + shipping costs for the return? Just to verify.

Thanks.

[blu808]

yes. thats correct. :rawk:

[2fast4y0u]

im getting a little confused...
i dont know a lot about the differentials in cars. i dont have abs or anything special so how do i know if i have a open diff or whatever.

i want to make sure that i can get this done

[ALTRNTV]

If you don't have ABS, and if your differential was never changed, then you have open differential.

[MurdarioStomp]

cool...hopefully i can talk a few more kids from my forums into it so we can mayeb save on some shipping. kids just seem skiddish till they read all the reviews here. thanks for doing this!

[blu808]

Well if you guys bring in a bunch at a time i can give you all a better deal.

[ranisron]

Hey Luke, hope the quit-smoking process is working out for ya.

How much does it cost for the V3 pumpkin shipped (I don't have a diff laying around) to 47403? I know the shipping will be hella expensive...

I hope I explained my request well, if not, I will give you a holla.

thx.

Ran/Ron

[blu808]

well i would love to ship you a diff, but i think i have welded up all the ones in this area, and they are hella hard to find now. haha.

sorry. i will let you know if i can get one.

[ranisron]

that's cool Luke. Keep me informed, and much appreciated.

gonna love "hella"...

[rdsskate]

so i have a question. can i send the guts of the pumpkin and get the version 4 weld job or does that need to be in the pumpkin and would it cost less considering you don't have to go and clean the pumpkin?

[blu808]

It is $10 less if you send me your guts. lol

[MurdarioStomp]

OK, i have a lil group thing going on here at my local website so we'll be sending you like 5-10 soon here from ohiodrifting

do you clean them up like that and paint them??? that would be rad

[terribleT1one]

ok so i can send u my entire pumpkin(drained of course) and to do the version 4 is 100 bucks correct? and if thats all correct can u send me your address so i can ship mine to you. you can send me an email at [email protected] or contact me on AIM at YourHomieMatteo. thanks.

[speedgod^s13]

Can you find out how much, it would cost me to ship my diff to you, and get it shipped back? I'm located in 96816. Honolulu, HI

[blu808]

MurdarioStomp: Great. Just let me know how many. I will give a discount on
multiple orders.


terribleT1one: Thats right, $100 plus shipping for the rreturn trip.
For now send them to 3706 Century dr.
Campbell, Ca
95008
Be sure to call or email before sending them out
[email protected] or 408-515-9598

[blu808]

Can you find out how much, it would cost me to ship my diff to you, and get it shipped back? I'm located in 96816. Honolulu, HI


I have no idea who ships stuff from Hi.
I can tell you it is 75 pounds, and my address is listed above.


Thanks.

[terribleT1one]

[QUOTE=blu808]MurdarioStomp: Great. Just let me know how many. I will give a discount on multiple orders.


we are lookin at 4 diffs for now but thats subject to change, we will definately call you with our info and who wants which version before we send them out. were hoping to get them all out by saturday/sunday at the lastest. how long do you think it would take to get those done and shipped? (we have a event comin up the 9th so were just hoping to get them back before then). also murdariostomp wants to know if you paint the diffs as well? we heard that you did and if so how much extra will that run us. thanks for your time.

Thanks matt. I still do the cleaning. I start with wire wheeling the thick stuff off, then i goto the beadblaster, and do the rear cover.

I usually charge $50 since it takes me over 1.5 hours to do. But i have lowered my cleaning price to $25.


Thanks

[MurdarioStomp]

nice...well, i might stil be interested, but i'll 100% give you a call before i mail em out and make sure its cool. i would do that all myself but im sooo busy. i appreciate this a lot

[MurdarioStomp]

ok, well let me know off the top of your head what you can do deal wise for us...we will be shipping 5-6 diffs (most likely out of pumpkins since we cant ship 6 75 lb diffs in one container really easily) all want version 3...email me at

[email protected]

with a price and we'll get those shipped out as soon as we can.

[blu808]

$50 each for 5+

How soes that sound?

[MurdarioStomp]

sounds good to me! thanks man...i'll get em together now and ship em your way by monday. thanks!!

(im on a personal mission to show kids you don't NEED an aftermarket LSD to drift, but kids are still skeptical...even after reading your description, so i decided me and a few kids are going to rock em and see what happens....thanks)

[heartcooksmouse]

jesus, you came out with version 4 already?
i thought you had like no time to weld them up.
ah well, i can say this to all you others out there.
weld locd is fun :bigok:
i :love: it.

yes, it chirps when flippign a bitch daily driving.
but one thing is for sure, for almost 700 bucks less, and no break in time, and barely any maintenance, you cant beat this deal.

and luke's hella chill, he invited me to his bday party :w00t: but i was busy, damn.

luke, whats the diff in the diff's besides the extra welding?
would it be worth "upgrading?"

[dannyboi]

Luke, you better watch out.

Kaaz may send some cronies to your door for all the lost business you've caused them. The LSD racket is serious business. :spank:

[blu808]

haha. thats ok with me.


The version 4 would be worth upgrading if you plan on doubling your hp.
There is actual metal plating in that one.

[koontek]

Hey Luke
Got your diff a couple of days ago. Looks good! Thanks for the fast turn around time! Cant wait to try it out.

[blu808]

Thats great that you recieved it. Can you please comment on how it looks. Im sure you will agree that its just not some diff with welded spider gears, and how it actually has the metal plating with gear stoppers.

Thanks.

[koontek]

Thats great that you recieved it. Can you please comment on how it looks. Im sure you will agree that its just not some diff with welded spider gears, and how it actually has the metal plating with gear stoppers.

Thanks.

Luke did a great job cleaning up the diff for me. He doesnt just weld a big chunk of crap inside, he welds all the critcal points and welds a couple of plates to make sure it stays lock. Its worth the money in my opionion.

[ballr858]

sweet cant wait till i get mine.

[projekt_s13]

i want one too, but can i drive down there and give it to you?

So the diff has to be completely clean? Like no oil residue(sp)?

[blu808]

No just make sure that you drain the oil, i will take care of the rest.

Luke

[s14xman]

looks like i'll just be sending you the gears if thats ok with you. Do you still wanna do the deal we talked about? If not i guess $90 plus the shipping back for me just sending you the internals? does that work for you?

[SwiftS14]

Hey Luke, can i send you a open diff, then have you do a V4 and i'll pay you 100+shipping threw paypal? [email protected]

[blu808]

s14xm: Yes that would work out fine either way. Let me know what you would like to do.

Swifts14: Yes that would be fine.


paypal is [email protected]
thanks

[oneslows14]

Well i dont know.. Sounds good seen people with welded.. Ill say this i have never seen pros use nor have i "EVER" seen anyone put it down in my eyes were i was like wow shit nice clip.... I always see spin but i guess everyone is getting use to. I have had cusco 1.5 and its the shit. But i would be willing to try.. I like to race on the freeway so i dont know...lol
Were are you??
I can test and give you my feel..
Iv seen you drift.... You run this? I havnt seen your drift in a couple of months but....???
thanks

Luke

[ranisron]

Luke..... got any pumpkin laying around??? I am still interested in your welded diff. the only problem is shipping a pumpkin back and forth between IN and CA

[oneslows14]

Is that your rx7 with ls?
I just bought a brand new from japan vlsd and axels...
HOw much to test??
thanks
[email protected]

[blu808]

oneslows14: yes that is my rx7 with a ls1 motor.

Anyways, lets skeeting. :goyou: :goyou: :goyou: :goyou: :aw: :aw: :aw: :aw: :ughd: :ughd: :ughd:

[Vatche]

cheap 240sx is the way to go...i live by it :) and i just wanted to add that luke is a great guy i have dealt with him in the past also and i just bought a manifold from him...and he answered a million questions for me while i was buying it from him. definately a great guy very helpful and kind. when i can afford to lose my daily driver for a while ill send my diff too you also. unless you think waiting for an s15 is better for drag/grip. prolly no chance of drifting.

[emperor_lunchbox]

would you ship these?
If so, I am interested.

[Skidmark240sx]

Would you be able to weld a ae86 open diff? Would it be the same price as listed?

Thanks,
Mark

[oneslows14]

i have a brand new vlsd with axles if anyone wants $250...
[email protected]

[SwiftS14]

Hey Luke, i just bought a diff from a S13, could i just send you the guts or do i have to send the whole diff?

[blu808]

Thanks guys for the props.

Answers. Yes we do mail orders all the time. Please hit me up on pm for the address.

oneslows14: Start your own for sale thread if you want to sell shit!

[TAMTANIUM]

Are you going to move down to Socal anytime soon?:D if not I have to ship it to you.

[blu808]

I really want to move down there, but im still trying to figure all this out.

[andy31144]

You got PM. I just wanted to know if you could possibly track down a diff because I am kind of using mine. If not I will try and track one down.

[Eggdrop]

Im thinking of doing this but a few questions. I have a fastback that is sr'ed. I have an open diff and i need to get lsd cause i cant keep the power on the ground. i also want to get into drifting with this but it is alos my daily. will this set up work for me?

[Pred]

ive been PM'ing you. Havent heard a responce back yet.

[andy31144]

ive been PM'ing you. Havent heard a responce back yet.
Same here.
al;kdsflkjmessage.

[SwiftS14]

It is $10 less if you send me your guts. lol

PMed you, i found a open diff already, just the guts not the whole diff. all i need is your adress and the finaly priced to be shipped back. im going to do payment with paypal if thats cool with you. ;)

[blu808]

Sorry guys i havent recieved any pm's. Please email me at [email protected]

[DRIFTER-M]

The Weld Locd diff is amazing. Weld locd>2way, haha. Had it for a while and it rides nice and all.

+1 for shock weld locing.
Thanks for the awesome product Luke :)

[~4N~]

I'm definitely planning on doing this as soon as I get ahold of an open diff. I just have a couple of questions. How long does it usually take to get it back if I shipped an open diff to you? And also, if you've already shipped any, could you please just give me a very rough estimate on how much the shipping back usually costs (I'm planning on sending the entire pumpkin from the Kansas City area, 64063), just so I know aproximately how much it will cost me total.
Thanks for any info.

[blu808]

4n: Thanks for the interest. A majority of our buisness is mail order. Shipping from your location should be around $48 each way. Also if you would like to remove the diff from the pumpkin then the weight is reduced and shipping would only be around $20 each way.

Thanks and let me know.
Luke

[~4N~]

Alright, thanks. I sent you a message through email, but it was returned, so I sent it to you as a PM. Please let me know if you got it, thank you.

[~4N~]

According to UPS, you should have gotten my diff guts today. I sent you the $90 for the version 4 to your Paypal. Please let me know how much the shipping was once you send it back, and I'll send you the difference for the shipping.
I can't wait to get it, hah.
Thanks.

[blu808]

Thanks. Just recieved the diff today. It will be going out first thing monday. Money also recieved. Thanks !

I will let you know on the shipping.

Luke

[s14xman]

sorry to thread jack luke but i'm curious what fluid you use for these?

[blu808]

Since there is nothing going on inside the diff anymore besides the ring/pinion lash, and the stub bearings you can use any 75-90 gear oil No lsd additive needed.

[Slidin240Wayz]

Can you do this on a VLSD?

[~4N~]

Once I install it, should I do any kind of a break-in procedure, or should the fluid be replaced after breaking it in, like it is with LSD's?

[fromxtor]

Luke,

earlier you mentioned gear lash having to be reset, how hard is this to do usually?

[blu808]

Can you do this on a VLSD?

It would be better for you to sell your vlsd for $300, buy a open diff and have it welded.

fromxtor: It is somewhat involved. I would reccomend just bringing it to a drivetrain shop. They should do it for not more than $15

[fromxtor]

ok cool, your the man. As soon as I get home from this deployment i'll be sending you my guts. :)

[Edcel]

i know this is a dooshe bag question but what kind of box did you use to ship your guys' differential? i keep thinking of something strong enough but i sure dont know..

[blu808]

i know this is a dooshe bag question but what kind of box did you use to ship your guys' differential? i keep thinking of something strong enough but i sure dont know..

Well Torco oil sends me oil all the time so i usually wrap the diff in cardboard, then put it in a oil box, and tape the crap out of it.

fromxtor: Just let me know. Thanks for the serving our country.

[~4N~]

Hey, I just wanted to ask if my diff has been shipped yet, so I can send you the shipping money.

Also, once I install it, should I do any kind of a break-in procedure, or should the fluid be replaced after breaking it in, like it is with LSD's?

[blu808]

allready shipped.

There is no break in req.

Also, once I install it, should I do any kind of a break-in procedure, or should the fluid be replaced after breaking it in, like it is with LSD's?

[sliEighty]

ok if im sending you and open diff what exactally should i do before i send it out and how much do you think shipping would be from 17033... a lot of places around here wont do it and the places that will are jerkoffs and i dont trust them

[blu808]

I actually know a girl in hershey that i went to school with in Los gatos. Weird huh?

To prep the diff all that is req is you drain all the oil. If its not drained before shipping and they detect a leak its like $500 fine for undeclaired hazardous items.

So yea just drain it, box it, and ship it.

The shipping should only cost around $40 for the whole pumpkin or about $20 for just the internals.

Thanks for the interest and let me know.


Luke

[doc99]

Hey luke I shot you an e-mail. Not sure if you got it. It's [email protected] right?

Your welcome, I am proud to be fighting for my fellow zilvians freedom. :D

[YUNG DRIF]

luke is the man. 75% percent of drifters from the bay rock the famous welded diff from luke, u actually save alot of money rather than buying a 2way for like a million dollars lukes my hero if u cant tell!!!!!

[blu808]

Haha. Your the man. I really didnt tell him to say that. He is just tight. and hyphy.

[zerogrips13]

hey luke .,.. this is frank.. ohiodrifting.. wednesday im shiping 3 diffs out to you for a version 3 weld :P.. they will be sent DHL .,. there removed form the pumpkins... 60 each right ? get back to me at [email protected] or pm me, ill keep checking..

4N: Glad you like it. Have you drifted with it yet?

[zerogrips13]

i wanted to let u know a head of time so it didnt catch u off guard :P

[meshmasteryow]

[doc99]

I shipped my diff out to you thursday. Hopefully the address isn't an issue.

[Ivan]

can you weld a miata diff? I need to remove mine asap since its leaking oil and would like for you to weld it for me.

[blu808]

Hey everyone. I have gotten the ok from jasper performance to run my welded diffs out of their shop. They are all about keeping drifting affordable to everyone, and arnt even requesting a cut of the money. Which is good since it isnt alot of money. lol

Anyways.. Im sorry this had to come at an unexpected time, and I will know on monday where i will be for the next few months.


If anyone has any concerns just call me.

Listen, I can understand your concern when it comes to your money, but could you PLEASE calm down a bit and/or keep your constant nagging out of the public eye, say maybe PM/IM/phone calls, I know how to get ahold of luke all 3 ways and he makes it very available.
Then, maybe, just maybe, no one would call you on behaving like an adolescent.

[doc99]

Plus, he's posted his phone number up several times. Just call him if you're that concerned. I've been waiting longer then you have but I trust luke in getting it done.

[blu808]

Hey guys. Shop should be up on monday, and emails replied too. Thanks for the interest guys.

[zerogrips13]

long distance is expensive and yea... lol whatever its all good ..

oh yea said it a few times.. pm box full email no responce.... this only way for me to get in touch with him like it or not ur stuck with it

[cogden]

luke still waitin for a reply with my track number havent heard from you yet whats up

cory

[cogden]

[blu808]

Hey Cory. I sent you an email with the tracking number. I know that long distance charges are expensive, so from now on i will offer any customer to call me collect, and i will pay the bill. I know i have been lagging the last few weeks because i have been to socal for 2 weeks, racing, san jose gp, moving my shop, and moving my residence. But mark my word, if i say i will do somthing i will.

Cory on a side note. Thanks for helping make this country what it is. Pos rep for thet. Hope you like the diff.

On an outside note to all my awsome customers I would like you guys to all send me pics of your face, car (action shots pref), and specs. I want everyone to be up on the new site. Also that way i can send all my customers weld locd stickers. Please dont pm me. i have 340 to reply to this week. Send everything to- [email protected]

It's pretty easy. Unbolt the rear cover, unbolt the bearing caps and pull the bitch out.

[blu808]

Hey guys. I have very limited internet use at the moment, since i have moved my residence, and to the new shop. I should have consistant internet use by wed.

R&R_sil80: No that is our old address. The new address is 1433 el camino, santa clara ca.

[DoriftoPnoy]

so out of curiosity.... has anyone had one break on them? i'm just a lil concerned if i use this daily im gunna just lock up and spin out and end up into a wall, off a cliff, or binded to another car....

[blu808]

I have done over 200 of these and only 2 came apart. because one of the guys didnt put oil in it, the other because he had a oil leak and he ran it dry.


Most other people who weld it themselves have it break eventually.

Ours wont.

[DoriftoPnoy]

You seem to have a whole lot of happy customers. I don't doubt them. I'll prolly just find another open diff and have you weld that for me. That way I can just pop in the other open diff incase the welded one were to fail on me. Thanks for the reply. I may contact you soon.

[blu808]

I hope to hear from you soon. But just so you know our diffs feature a lifetime warranty. liability excluded, just parts.

And dont worry it wont fail.

[Berzerker]

Im starting my KA-T project so i need my Open differential welded, il be sending mine in soon :)

[scribbles6]

Hey luke, i got my differential with me, i'm ready to ship it out, i'm just wondering, how do i go about sending you the money for the work done? do i sliip a check with packaging or do you have paypal where i could just transfer you the money? thanks for taking the time to answer all kinds of questions for us here. let me know, i'm juiced about getting my diff. welded.
