hi all
just curious about transaxle numbers. my pathy has 'FS5W71C HG48'

the first bit is the transmission - t case combo. the second bit is about the diffs, which is the confusing bit, no where in my searching can i find any record or info about the HG48.

any one shed any light?

The HG bit on the GQ/GU's is the diff gearing ie I have a GQ it says HG41. Which means it has 4.1:1 difff gears (CW&P).

Factory 4.8's now that would be sweet if they fit in the GQ's

bazzle is on the money

pathfinder

im from s.a.

the thing is no nissan dealers have any record of a hg48 in a pathy

turps you might be on to something there, i know the arb air lockers are the same for the pathy rear and patrol front. if the lockers are the same can i assume the mountings are the same? anyways maybe thats just the noob coming out in me
