lsd vs locked diff mitsi l200

Post by dan.c »

have a mitsi l200. body lift and 33's, turns like shit already.
its never going to be on the road, solely an offroad truck. goes alright for what it is, but seems to have an open rear diff (or a farked lsd).
i have another diff i could put in it that is lsd, however wondering how bad it will affect the handling to just weld the diff in it. pros, cons? id rather not change diff if i dont have to, dont even know if ratio is the same.

thanks

haha yes well i would still weld it just be a little careful then

oh a welded rear will slip sideways real bad when on sides of hills banks etc expescailly if greasey or icey this will need to be taken into acount as well
