I think there is a distinct line between "cheaper" and "less quality/reliability"......often they go together but not always. 78Buford has also been running a welded D70 for years with 42" tires, 500+ ft.-lb. big-block, 6k+ lb. truck. I've seen all 4 tires bouncing off the ground with his foot on the floor (5k rpm) on rocks many times and it's never failed. Maybe we are just lucky, but I don't think so. I have seen poorly executed welded diffs fail (usually because they are not welded enough). But can't really fault somebody for wanting an actual spool especially when it's not my money. ;)
