An open diff that is welded is still an OPEN DIFF that is welded

yes

but WELDING an open diff, I'd consider that you're changing the physical properties and the mechanical workings of the diff enough that it's no longer considered an OPEN DIFF

as in it no longer reacts in any way, shape, or form like an open diff so it should no longer be considered an OPEN DIFF but rather a welded?

blah

EDIT: an anyone w/ a 2-way clutch type =

I don't have a favorite i guess....only driven cars with vlsd aside from a few quick runs in sean's bmw when he had the quaife in it. I'm sure the first time I really drive a car with a good lsd I will have to throw down on an upgrade.
