Welding an axle

This is one craig did Its simple just hammer pack it full of weld this ones from a toyota but works on any diff i weld all gears togther and weld to the cast this takes the stress off the center pin next one im doing im going to try useing a plate on either side

haha those carrir bearing look a little hurting and full of slag.. other wise.. very sookly filled

thats ok tho it wont break even with craigs boogers in there

ya i havent seen anything like that since planet of the globs (ie my last attempt at welding)

it was his first time on the arc i thought he did pretty good not like you can do a clean diff weld with an arc or flexcore

lol i never said i could do better, mine would proally looks like biker poonuggets then that lofl

I would have pulled the pin out after tacking it together then its not covered in slag

it wont ever need to come apart so the center pin is welded in next time im going to plate right across it on either side yota carrier are usually so we didnt care

ok right no C clips lol

pfff i can break it

i weld the 4 corners 8 all together and i weld the gear to the carrier on both sides. if you dont clean out the slines it makes it a bitch to get axles in

the way i have seen is jsut a 3/8's plate welded to the gears all around? but whatever works i guess

jeesey to sooke for that man

after cleaning the gears with brake cleaner is there any other prep needed??
