J30 VLSD axles, 5x1 or 3x2 bolt pattern?

[babowc]

Guys..i bought a vlsd from a J30, however, my bolt pattern is 5x1.. 5 bolts for the axle..

i was wondering in what years the 5x1 bolt pattern came on Infiniti J30s?i've seen some with 3x2, 6, bolt patterns and some with the 5x1, 5 bolt patterns.

does anyone know what years it came from?if anyone knows and tells me.. i'll love you.

I got mine from a 95-97. You need the J30 axles, go back and get them.

I've never seen a J with the 3x2 axles, I thought that was Q45-only... weird.

The early J30's (thru 94) used the 5x1 axles. Later ones (95-96) used 3x2. I think 97's changed mid year but I havent seen anything definite. Greg, you must have gotten a 97, cause all the J30's Ive seen follow this rule.

crap..i got in contact with another seller on ebay.he doesnt have the pictures of the axles.. but said its 94-97 axles..

the thing is..i have the passengerside axle but not the driver's side.another problem, stupidity on my part, would be that i bought z32 axles, which are too long to work with s13

stinkks

Youre saying your diff has the 5x1 output flanges, right? Check the classifieds for someone parting a 5x1 J30 or selling the axles.

That ebay seller is full of crap. 94-97 axles are not all the same.

indeed.noone wants to part one axle and i completely understand, haha.

yes, my diff is 5x1.
