About two weeks ago I welded up the spider gears in an R160 (3.7) and jammed
it in the back of the Datto.

Gave it a dozen hot laps at winton and have been driving it to and from
work.

I was getting a bit sus when I stopped hearing that squeek of the tyres on
turning so jacked up the car tonight.

Sure enough....diff not locked.  The welding in the spider gears has
obviously broken but I can't believe it's not making a hell noise.  The diff
isn't even making a bit of a wine.

I used a heap of current and heavy electrodes when I welded the gears, so
I'm stuffed if I know whats gone wrong.

Anyone have any tips as to the correct method?  I have an open R180 (3.9)
sitting under the bench and might give that a burn.
