I have a 2 wheel drive s10 that ive lifted a little, its my hunting/fun rig that gets on the pavement too. it has an open diff as of now but i want a cheap locker so i can at least get out to the light/easy trails at the local offroad park.
i cant afford a mechanical/pneumatic/electric locker. i have easy access to replacement rear ends but im wondering if welding my spider gears will cause anything to break? or should i go for a spool (which is more in my price range, just never installed one before.)
