    GQ rear diff centre into front housing (project idea for fun 4ws buggy)

    been wondering now for some time if the rear diff centre will bolt into the front housing asimtoying around with the idea of a 4ws project Buggy ! aka the "Warhog" from Halo ,
    the idea is cutting up the chassis and welding up to front ends back to back and using hydrolics to control the steering front and rear !
    are the splines the same on the axles and cv shafts ?

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Pathfinder LSD rears go into the front. There are plenty of threads around of people doing it too. I think the fronts are slightly smaller hence the pathy and navara diffs can be used.

    I can confirm that a pathfinder rear centre fits in a gq front. I had a 2.4 D21 pathfinder with a arb air locker and the locker is now in my brothers gq.
    Just check the pathfinders rear axle code it should be the same as the gq front.

    How many K's has it done? I'm mostly worried about the strength of it?

    None of the pathy gears were used just the air locker part. I dont know how many kms of use in the gq But when it was in the pathy it was given hell every day.

    No worries. Did the pathfinder do an LSD?
