i have a competion rock buggy based on a yota with a spool rear axle, have any of you guys welded the rear diff of your soobi? and if so howed it do? street manners still ok? ive got 26 inch all terrains if that helps-thanks

Yeah - I have my rear welded - a lot of us with lifts do it. You just weld the spider gears together - I put a high grade bolt in the geer teeth and weld it all together.

 

As for on-road, if the pavement is dry, you'll snap the stock rear axles on a hard turn. The DOJ cups will split open.

 

BUT - the cool thing is that it takes only a few short minutes to remove one axle for pavement driving. I've driven with them in mind you, you just have to be careful not to turn too hard or fast.
