What about rear tyre wear with a locked diff?
I wouldn't regard a welded diff as roadworthy. :o

If anything ever happened and an insurance assessor found it... :(

Ive not change the omega mounts yet, but when i replaced the engine mounts on my previous car it made it feel like a new car. Everything felt tight again, throttle response was better etc.

I cant comment on yours but on my '95 110K miles omega the mounts have definetley seen better days.
