Welding Diffs for Drift: Why It’s Still a Go-To for Perth Skid Builds

Welding Diffs for Drift: Why It’s Still a Go-To for Perth Skid Builds

 

When it comes to building a drift car on a budget — or just creating a proper street-slaying weapon — welding the diff is still one of the best bang-for-buck mods around. Whether you’re skidding an old BMW E36, E39, E46, a Ford Falcon, a Holden Commodore, or anything RWD with attitude, a welded diff delivers the control and consistency you need to keep it sideways.

 


🔩 Why Weld a Diff?

 

Simple: locked rear = both tyres spinning together. That means no more single peg burnout embarrassments, no more failed transitions mid-drift, and no more hoping your old LSD still works.

We regularly weld diffs for:

  • BMWs – E36, E39, E46, E30, and more. These chassis love a good weldy.
  • Fords – AU, BA, BF, and EF Falcons make perfect budget drift cars with a welded diff.
  • Holdens – Commodores from VN to VE, ready to send.
  • Other RWD rigs – Silvias, Skylines, 180SXs, Utes, Wagons — if it’s RWD, we can lock it.

 


💪 Our Welds Don’t Quit

 

Not all welds are created equal. A bad weld can crack, fail, or even destroy your diff mid-skid. We do it right:

✅ Full internal clean and prep
✅ Deep penetration welds, not just tacks
✅ All spider gears fully locked
✅ Strong, clean finishes made to handle abuse

We’ve welded diffs that are still going strong after seasons of limiter bashing and clutch kicks. That’s the kind of reliability you want under your car.
