Welcome to N4W

Looks like a h233(b?)out of a pathfinder, because it is set up for coil spring susp. and could be out of a different, newer nissan SUV.
This thread can be really helpfull

yeah...I say Pathy, or possibly a Patrol...but prob a pathy...

the wms to wms is about 59" it has 11 studs holding the third in. if i get a chance tommorow ill pull the shafts and count the splines and count the teeth on then gears. any idea how much $$ i can get out of this? thanks for the input

That is definitely a Pathfinder axle.. an H233b. 9.25" ring gear. That particular unit is a drum brake unit from '88-'93, as the 94-95 had disk brakes in the rear. If it came out of an Automatic equipped truck, It is more than likely geared to 4.625:1. Otherwise, it will be a 4.3:1 which came with manual trucks.

That one looks just like the rear axle in my truck below except for the drum brake ends. Mine has the disks.

As for how much it is worth? I'd say around $150-175. It probably has the LSD in it, which makes it not as desireable (locker options are available for the open diff carriers, but not the LSD carriers). but, the LSD is a good one, probably a 250+ftlb unit which works very well offroad.

pulled it apart has 30 spline shafts couldnt really tell but i think it is a lsd added a pic of the third to the link. think it has the 4.3 gear set just under 4.5 turns of the pinion

that actually looks like an open diff. at least, it doesn't look much like any of my LSD units. The case looks totally different.


oh, and if you look at your ring gear, it says 35:8 on it, which is the 4.375 which you already discovered.

inside the carrier dont apear any thing special but i cant get the shafts to spin opposite directions i even tried a pry bar it does have a solid piece of metal in the carrier would be in the middle of the shafts when they are installed you can see the end of it in the pic the shiny thing in the little window and it moves back and forth but wont slide out because it is not splined and it is solid. puzzling

sounds like it either has the LSD unit or a spool.

Sorry. My 88 pathy had disk brakes in the rear and a H233B.

My wife's 95 SE pathy had drums as well.

the metal thing you are talking about is the thrust block for drum brake axles.

That's just a 4-pinion open carrier:



Count the splines again, there are 31.

The disc brakes were always optional on the SE, they came with the sports pack through 93, and with the OffRoad pack afterwards.
