I got my diff welded on my 240sx. I got it back and can not turn it by hand is this normal? Does it take the power of the car. To turn it? Or did the kid mess my diff up?

you should be able to. u only weld the inside parts (spider gears) sounds like he welded the part that still needs to rotate.

drain it take the cover off and show us what the insides look like then we can give u a definite answer.

the diff is either fucked or it isnt there is no going back, toss it in and leave it jacked up in the rear (on jackstands of coarse) let the clutch out in first, sometimes you can turn them by hand sometimes you cant, if you cant and he welded it right then its only a matter of time before it goes anyways
