found this for you Rowdy should help you out a little
I need some advice on welding the front and rear. Do i just burn off the oil with a torch and weld up with a mig or would stick be better? Can i weld it up in the housing or does it need to be out? Ill get pics up of what i have done but the camera took a sh!t on me
I used brake cleaner to help clear the oil out. You can leave the carrier in the housing, just have to watch for slag/spatter on the ring gear and make sure to clean it out thoroughly with a magnet. I used a mig, worked fine.
Either way will work fine, if you use a mig though allow a little extra time for cooling. You can use the torch to blacken the ring gears with the soot from the acetylene to help keep the BB's from sticking also.
take the time to take it out, clean it real well. start by welding the spiders together put it back in to make sure it all line up. Pull it back out then just start welding the **** out of it, but go slow so you dont over heat the bearings, then bury in sand for a day or two to let it cool slowly and to avoid craking.
Well,finally got the camera out here is some progress
