stop being stupid talon, if you have nothing informational to say, go say your 'famous' "whores." in the biggest thread to waste space elsewheres...




and BOTLFEDLT1, im just asking because a car im looking into has a open welded diff so i wanted see what peoples opinions about them are

if i get the car, ill probally go pick up a oem one off a junkyard car and swap that on there, and keep the open welded one for track runs or whatever


and thanks again rob for your insight on the welded diffs, really helped me out

Isn't it just a welded diff? Open, Welded, and LSD are all differents type of diffs.

well i think its just "open welded" and not LSD, but thats what the guy told me

i think its like this
open meaning not diff covering (called the pumpkin sometimes)
and its spider gears are welded
and he called it a LSD because it kinda acts like a LSD when welded

I am not trying to argue, but based on what I know it sounds like you have some mixed up info. Maybe I am just not understanding where you are coming from, but I understand it to work like this:

I think "open" refers to a diff that has no slip protection, i.e. it will let one wheel turn while the other doesn't. "Welded" refers to exactly what you already explained, but will act like a spool where both tires spin because there is a 50/50 power distribution. (Kinda like a locker) "LSD" is a limited slip differential, like a "posi" that tries to keep both wheels spinning, but its not a 50/50 distribution of power.

Yeah, I haven't heard of an open welded before. I think subie explained them well. I think you would be better suited with a LSD for daily driving.

I did some research for you (yay for me). It's is called a welded open, simply for the fact that you would weld an lsd. And yes, it's the spider gears that are welded together. Basically you are locking them together at all times. This causes both tires to spin together. It acts more like a locker than an lsd, since an lsd will slip a little (hence the name limited slip differential). IMO you would be much better off finding a decent lsd to put in rather than have one welded.

No one welded up a lsd ninja man. He welded up an open.

You would be slower than having stock open diff on a track. Get a proper LSD and be done with it.
