Yes I did more research around the lsd , and others had asked the same thing on another forum http://www.exploroz.com/Forum/Topic/...atrol_LSD.aspx and yes I do believe they only have a diff lock switch.and a lil more info from online source"Some Nissan Patrol's & Safari's have different front & rear diffs. While the front uses the same diff gears throughout the range the rear has 2 options:
H233 11 Bolt (smaller) - Diff centre mounted using studs
H260 12 Bolt (larger) - Diff centre mounted using bolts
Some people belive that upgrading the rear H233 diff housing to the larger H260 will be a stronger option, but this is not the case. The pinion used on the H260 is the same size as the H233 and this is regarded as the weakest point. The H260 pumpkin is larger which will give you less ground clearance, the extra size does not help with strength and the weight will hurt fuel .. ................... ............. . as for my question , the type 2(1995) is a Japanese import into N.Z. and the spirit(1998) is also .
