blamtro Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) I believe the '97 has a high pinion R200A front axle and H233B rear axle. I am trying to re-gear my pathy to the 4.636 gears and need to know what other pathfinders or even other nissans could be donor vehicles. Currently, I have a '95 pathy available as a donor. Will these gears fit in mine? I can't tell from the FSMs. Mike Edited May 2, 2007 by blamtro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McClurgM Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) My 87 Pathfinder (C200/R180A) came with 4.6 gear ratio. I believe that some HardBody trucks and Pathfinders came with the H233/R200A 4.6 gear combo. Also some or the early model Xterra's came with the H233/R200A and 4.9 gear ratio.

88pathoffroad Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah, but they're 4.625:1, not 4.636:1. Different gears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McClurgM Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah, but they're 4.625:1, not 4.636:1. Different gears. How close do they need to be???...I thought that there is some tolerance in gear ratios not being exaclty the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vengeful Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 The HPR200a can only accept HPR200A gears. It will not accept any other R200a gears, as the HP ones are reverse cut. Just find an R50 with the 4.636s and swap the whole diffs. That won't be much more expensive than simply getting the R&Ps, especially if you get them through a JY. In fact, give me an ARB Rear Locker, and I'll give you either an Open or LSD 4.636 rear 3rd member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
