the whole story goes something like this

first you take out the clutch basket then on a lathe you can part the "lid" off at the seem then you take all 50 or so plates out but you have to mark them cause they must overlap each other in a certain way after you have cleaned everything you put them all back one by one and between each one you have to put a tablespoon of the 80 000 weight oil and when you have six plates left you stop with the oil, the you put the hole basket in a bucket of water almost fully submerged so the the water cools down the basket as you stichweld the lid back on until its welded all the way around then you just put it back in the lathe and machine the access welding of, i'm going to try it as soon as i have a spare diff that i can stripp.

i am busy with my photobucket account so when thats done i will post the pics in order
