If you plan to weld the centre up with out disassembling it, I recommend and use the following procedure:

1, place the diff flange down and clamp it to a welding table or similar, so the open centre faces the sky.
2, place a rage under the centre to catch slag from welding. Make sure the rag goes past the edges of the diff too.
3, Cut a piece of steel to sit in the "window" made by the four spider gears. This will be welded into the diff at a later stage. Only doing one side will be more than enough!
4, Fill the centre up with water! This will protect the bearings from the heat produced while welding, and the oil covering the parts will protect it for a short time from corrosion.
5, weld the spider gears where they meet each other on both sides. Once you have done this, check to see if the centre still spins around, if it doesn't - throw it away and start again!
6, place the "window" steel piece in and weld it to the spider gears. Check to see if the diff still spins, if not - throw it away and start again!
7, carefully remove the water and rag, taking all slag with it.
8, blow the centre out with compressed air to remove all the water, spray with CRC liberally if you don't plan on putting it back into the diff immediately.
9, install and let the understeer prevail!

This setup will be very detrimental to your front tyres too (due to it's pushing nature), use some old ones on the front as well as the back!
