Don't know much about specs (or even diffs for that matter), but would'nt the pathfinder and patrol have differant diff ratios, meaning that if you change your front diff, you'll need to change the ratio's in your rear diff to suit. Also, I'm sure axle splines etc would all need modifing to suit the new diff. Won't say it can't be done, but will say that if it is possible it's going to cost you $$$$$. Would be cheaper to fit an air locker

i have done this in my patrol you use the ring and pinion off the open centre to get the ratios and most of them have exactly the same splines. but you will need some one to shim the pinion up to get the backlash neat.
most diff places will do it but it will end up costing you about the same as a lockright cost about $450 to install how cheap did you get the lsd. still your rig your chioce.

All said and done I'd prefer a Nissan LSD over a lockright anyway.
Of course if it was a toyota LSD I wouldnt feel like that.

only paid $50 for it so should work out cheap if someone can fit it into my centre(back yarder)

Buy a $30 gregorys manual and do it yourself.
Really, putting them together is easiy, it's pulling the centre out in the first place that is the major pain in the a55.

does the rear of a pathfinder fit into the front of a gq or mq?
Cos i thought they ran a c200 rear of pathfinder and front of mq and h233 in rear of GQ.
Or is the center interchangeable between c200 and h233?
