3rd Member 1997 Pathfinder

Good evening everyone,

 

I’m in need of a 3rd member for my Pathfinder. Mine is an open diff and has a significant humming noise on the highway that goes away once you let off the throttle. In addition to that, the entire floorboard of the vehicle vibrates between 70-80mph. It’s not the tires or balancing, definitely driveline related. Rear differential has excess lash and definitely worn out over the 250k miles. Vehicle has a brand new driveshaft installed as well, still no luck. 

I’m located in NYC and there are no salvage yards around the area that has a differential for this vehicle. So I’m reaching out to the community in hopes of anyone being able to locate one for me. I’ll pay all costs. 
 

Thank you!

Check out Car-part.com 

This will search all the yards around you Via distance. also if memory serves, look for an xterra rear differential. they are 33spline as well like the R50s

New driveshaft might not imply anything.  How's the pinion angle?  It should be nearly parallel with the output from the transfer case.  How are your rear springs?
