worth nothing mate.

i'll come and collect them from you if you want. I want some patrol diffs to experiment with.

you and a million others are willing to collect them,

2.8's should have 4.6 diff gears,

Why don't you check your compliance plate?
If it says HG46, its 4.6:1, if it says HG43, its 4.3:1.
I think, they are 4.6:1 standard.

Cheers

genuine 1000 per end,
aftermarket $500 per,
used from brunswick I'd say $400-500 genuine ...
4.3's are $300 per end from brunswick + freight.

will be selling a pair both with good discs and calipers complete.

i doubt nissan would sell you a full diff with 4:6 disks and calipers for 1000

The GQ 2.8 also had a tighter lsd with a extra shim

If I remember correctly.

yeah i was happy as with the lsd, but on full flex with the long procomps i had with my 4" kit in the rear even with cruiser offset sunnies and only 33s, the tyre would be angled in towards the guard so much that it would rub a fair bit and stop tucked wheel from turning, so am thinking of spacing the bump stops a little when i put my 4" kit into my newer GQ i just got.
