Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Just wondering if anyone knows if an LSD is available for MQ/MK front diffs, I heard a rumour that it was an optional from new.

your rumour would be incorrect

They are not available.

I just found this posted on these forums

this was the post i was talking about
If you need axles or housings let me know. Off centre H233's are quite easy to come by here, also C200 LSD's.

Before you get all excited the no longer stock them however if you can get hold of a navara or pathfinder lsd they will fit in contrary to what nissan will tell you. This info came from the guy who runs dominator lsd.

We live and learn

scroll down to nissan section. The rd107 locker is the same number as navara and pathfinder.
What does that tell you

More info


C200 (12mm ring bolts) rear diff 29 spline

nissan navara D21 4x4 4cyl from 4/86 up to 1/92
nissan pathfinder WD21 4x4 4cyl from 4/86 up to 1/92

The R200A may be the same but not 100% sure


This is from a search i did
... LSD is fully interchangeable as well (except the viscous ones). I have
a C200 LSD in the R200A diff in the front of my ................

I stand corrected after doing some searching.

appology accepted,, ha ha ha ha ha , i have an 89 Navara, with an LSD and also after checking, searching, and talking to Nissan mechanics, i believe it will fit, do you think it will be worthwhile to do???

HELL YEA

well i'm not gonna take the LSD outta the ute that I have, but i'm sure that heaps of wreckers will have one, just gotta make sure i get one with a 4.6 ratio, that will be the next mission.

Why?
All you would need to do is drop your crownwheel off the open diff onto the lsd centre and save having to swap pinions as well.

sounds so easy, has anyone on these forums thought of putting an LSD out of a Navara or pathfider into the front of an MQ/MK.

really............not all people have a grand to throw at air lockers, but $200max on an LSD will keep the bank happy,

Thanks OZY1, I thought Screwy was trying to knock me off my cloud too early, ha ha ha

When i said " not while ARB still makes Air Lockers" I was refferring to myself not being part of the new trend in LSDs... not anyone else....

Im on of the only ones on this board running a front ARB locker In an MQ, that i know of.... im sure everyone else would be happy for LSDs...

screwy

well i know of one other, & i shall be another as well, once i can actually work on the car again, i've come to the decision thou after now having a locker in comparison to a lsd, the locker kicks ass & lsd's might as well be an open diff as they are only effective when the wheels are on the ground

Road use however the lsd is noticable, stops ya doin circles as you boot it round corners in the wet, i've noticed the difference as my new patrol has a rear locker so therefore its open on the road which kinda sucks
Lsd / locker combo now that'd be user friendly

sounds like a good idea to me

A couple these would do just nicely.

agree'd broke the pins in mine 3 times till the locker broke

OK, I'd get 8 and still be in front.

Don,t know where you learned maths but an ARB air locker is inly $1100 bucks and what about all the uncontrolable cv breakages and unnessesary stress on all of your drivetrain on hard surfaces when you don't want a locker in. I had one in the front of mine and took it out. I was just lucky there was more than one d/head in the world and got someone else to buy it.
