Professionally Reconditioned with Premium Components

Every Nissan Patrol 4.3 rear differential centre undergoes a comprehensive workshop overhaul. The housing and carrier assembly are stripped down, thoroughly cleaned, and evaluated for case distortion. We rebuild these units using premium Japanese bearings and seals, setting ring-and-pinion backlash, bearing preloads, and tooth contact patterns to exact factory specifications. Quality genuine and aftermarket components are used throughout to ensure optimal strength and quiet operation under heavy towing or off-road conditions.

Common Nissan Patrol Rear Diff Issues

Workhorse Patrols—particularly those running larger tires or carrying heavy touring loads—frequently experience collapsed pinion bearings, noisy gear sets, worn-out or broken LSD clutches, and leaking pinion seals. Installing a fully remanufactured differential centre provides a far more dependable, long-term fix than taking a gamble on an untested second-hand unit.
