DIY ATB diff?

Car  C63 AMG, F430 & 172
Can you weld the diff in a 172? To give 50/50 torque ?

Reading recent threads it seems that the qualif diffs are only 50/50 ? so I could save a grand and just weld the diff and get the same effect?
 
Show me where to weld?

i dont know where to weld it! I've seen it on a few fourms!


IT WAS ONLY AN IDEA YOU BANDITS!
 
you'd weld the planetary gears solid, so they dont rotate, and hence divide torque equally through the crown wheel.

It isnt as a stupid idea as peoiple are making out IF your only going to drag/strip race....its a common practice, also on the drifting scene.

As people have pointed out, turning would be difficult, though not impossible, you'd just get alot of scrub and a crap turning circle!!

I know, and we say its a crap one that will never work like an ATB, unless you can prove otherwise.



The technic Stan says gives you a solid axle, and only practical for 1/4 mile stuff not the road or the track.
 
He never asked if it would work like an ATB, he asked if it would achieve 50/50 torque split...which it will. However it wont have the same effect, as its a permanant fixture which isnt sensative to wheel slip.

There we are, thats his question answered, so no need for any more bitching?
