Going to put a TA22 diff into my KE30. Need to take the coil spring mounts and linkage brackets off the TA22 diff, cut off the KE30 leaf mounts, and then weld them onto the TA22 diff.
Anyone got any advice on how to go about it?
One of the main issues is welding the leaf mounts in the correct location, so they are evenly spaced apart, and also at the right angle so the tail shaft is in correct alignment. Anyone got any ideas of a jig.
Only done a little bit of welding, but I reckon I could achieve good clean welds with a bit of practice and finding the right amperage. I can get an arc welder, but not a mig welder. I'm thinking the arc welder could burn through the diff housing. Also the heat could cause the diff housing to warp?
