Is there anywhere in Australia that I might be able to source a set of Nissan GU axles and get them shipped over?
Any recommendations of a decent place to try would be great?

A Built 80 front will be plenty strong enough and much cheaper than the equivalent nissan. then get a SALS rear and convert it to D60 locker gears and put some decent alloy axles in it from the US. So what exactly is a built 80? Would that be an 80 series with Longfields? An 80 series with ARB and ...

I've spent the last few days ringing round and searching for axles. Toyota seem to be easy to get and relatively cheap, I have found about 10 sets! Nissan Y60 (which I believe is the GQ) also quite a few around and also quite cheap. Nissan Y61 (which I believe is GU) Only found one breaking in the w...

Apparently, 60 series with longs in them seem to be about as strong as anyone needs, but, if you're running a 90 they won't be wide enough AFAIK. Another option might be GU front and 80 series rear, that gets you an offset rear to work with the LR transfer case, and full floating rear shafts. Steve...

rear sailsbury front ashcroft cvs and axles would be stronger and less hassle I run ashcroft in everything at the moment. I think Ashcroft is as good as you can get for a stock rover casing. Dave is an excellent bloke and stands by everything he sells 100%. They are perfectly fine for 99% of people...

Some models of Nissan Vans with the 2.7L diesel also used the H233B in the rear with a 5.71 ratio. The pinion flange on these is a similar size to a rover pinion flange which might make adapting your rover drive shaft a bit easier. You would need to swap the patrol diff center in as i think the spl...

Are you talking built axles or just standard ? Standard GQ Nissan have it hands down. Put in a set Caloffroad CV's and its a pretty sweet package. If you wanted to go the more custom job then theres heaps of ways you can do it depending on who you speak to. Personally, I'd go the Nissan as its just...

Well at the moment its running a slightly tweeked 200 Tdi (very little power) and a std manual box and I'm having axle problems now. In a few months I plan to change to a V8 with auto box so I want to improve the drive line first.bogged wrote:what is the config of your truck there? Engine/box etc...

Re: Which GU's ran the HG41 axles?
running 37's you would want 4.6 or 4.88's... You may well be right. I run 4.11:1 ring and pinions in my rover axles with 37's so I just looked for something close to the same. But thinking about it, It is a little over geared on the more technical stuff/rock crawls etc. I'll have to give that some ...

So it looks as if there is no real logic to which ratio's were fitted to which truck's. I am aware I will find the axle type on the plate but when I ask the people on the phone at the breakers yards to go and have a look they come up with all sorts of excuses why they cant (probably because its rain...

Which GU's ran the HG41 axles?
Hello. Im looking to fit some Nissan axles to my challenge truck. Ive spent quite a bit of time searching through the tech on the site and from what I can work out I need a pair of HG41 or possibly HG43 axles as fitted to a GU. I assume im right in thinking these are my best option for a challenge t...
