Please study these diagrams before attempting to weld.
Remember, measure twice, weld once. This procedure
is best done by a professional that has the ability to
check and straighten the axle housing should it warp
during the welding process.
** Be cautious to note where factory
pinion bearing oil passage is when grinding!
