H233B Diff 31 spline..

Post by SJC »

Can anyone tell me if the h233b 31 spline diff in a hardbody rear axle (not sure exactly which model hardbody), is the same as the H233B front gu patrol diff. AFAIK the front patrol diff is also 31 spline? (and the h233 patrol rear diff is 33 spline).

Cause I can get a lockrite locker that was installed in a hardbody rear diff - will this fit a patrol GU front diff? is it the same?

Which trucks have the H233B axle?

All H233B Axles aren’t the same, they do come in a few different widths but the main difference in the differential itself, is the spline count and diameter of the axle shafts. The H233B comes in both 1.26″ / 31 Spline and 3.31″ / 33-spline versions. however the gear sets and 3rd member housings are interchangeable.
Here is a little bit better breakdown of the H233B and which trucks it came in:
Pathfinder / Terrano: Late 80’s to 1995 – 1.26″/31-spline
Pathfinder: 1996 to 2004 – 1.31″/33-spline
Hardbody Pickup V6/4×4: Late 80’s to 1997 – 1.26″/31-spline
Frontier V6/4×4: 1998 to 2004 – 1.31″/33-spline
Xterra: 2000 to 2004 – 1.31″ / 33-spline
Patrol: Late 80’s to Present – Front 1.26/31-spline & Rear 1.31 /33-spline

What I have learned is that the hardbody H233b rear diff use a 4 pinnion carrier, the H233b front patrol diff use a 2 pinnion carrier...

According to Mike it will fit...
According to Ronald it will not fit...

I can get the second hand unit for R4250, but not sure what condition it is in or if it will fit or not.
Can get a new lockrite front locker from 4x4traction for R6k - which is 2k cheaper than what they originally quoted me a few months ago.
A Lokka locker can be bought online from Australia and delivered for R4k, but import duties is another 2k...

Ek dink ons moet eers vra hoekom jy wil weet?

Watse plane het jy?

Dit is dalk 'n beter plan om 'n antwoord te kry.

Ek is redelik seker die 4.8 auto en 4.5 manual sal verskillende gear ratios he.

Ek dink die 4.8 auto het 3.9:1, en die 4.5 het 4.111:1?
Mag ons ons kenniskry met lekkerkry aanhoukry.
