yeah pull the spider gears out, fill in a couple teeth opposite of each other with weld on both gears and put em back in, did that with a 12 bolt, no problems

if its a road driven vehicle, posi unit may be your best choice, if your just gonna wheel it, weld up the spiders like Jjay 78 said.

If you are boggin in I wouldn't weld the front you will have a lot of problems with breakage, but you will notice a huge difference on how well it will get around with the rear welded or locked
