Adavantage: Price. It is cheaper to weld one up than find, buy, and fit a limited slip.
Disadvantage: Tire wear. With NO differential action, the inner tire is going to have to spin faster than road speed to keep up with the outer tire, or the outer tire will have to scrub along slower than road speed to keep down with the inner tire.

I have run a welded diff in the Chickenhawk for years with no problems.

"Keep down?" Is that even a proper phrase?
