How to tell diff ratios?
The previous owner told me it had 4.11's fitted and I have no clue how to find out.
It feels terribly slow pulling off, going through the gears like a Russian Ural truck.
They shaved the beards of our mothers with razors made of bronze,
they stole all our good LP's and ate all the potato scones.
It's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice.

Hi mate. You can do it a couple of ways. If they have been swapped then the compliance plate wont match.
Pull the diff out and count the teeth on crown wheel and pinion.
Jack the back diff off the ground and slowly spin the back wheels and count how many times the drive shaft turns. Put a mark on the drive shaft and ask someone to slowly turn the back wheel while you count the spins. Your looking for 1:3.9 or 1:4.1 or 1:4.3 or 1:4.6 revolutions of the tailshaft for 1 turn of the back wheels.

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.
