Does anyone know of a manufacturer for limited slip diff,s for 2wd H233B or a locker?Lincoln Electric is too unreliable.Desert Rat is the guy in the know.

Nissan OEM LSDs are the only ones available.

Lincoln Electric? Not sure what that means. A lincoln locker is just a term used for when you weld the spider gears, which effecitvely turns the rear diff into a spool - it's locked solid all the time.

31 spline H233b's have ARBs availble. Lockrites are availble too if you have an open carrier now. Detroit used to make a locker for it too, but it's discontinued, and they're hard to find nowadasy.

If it's a 33 spline H233b, an ARB is the only locker choice available.

Factory LSD's in the 31 spline axles (can be found in 1st gen Pathfinders and some V6 Hardbodies) are far better than the 33 spline versions. The breakaway torque is close to 200 lb-ft on the early ones, while it's something like 40 lb-ft on the 33 spline axles - essentially worthless.

check out the sticky thread on the axles.

What 2wd are you talking about with an H233B?

2WD D21 trucks have a 233B but the shaft diameter is smaller than 4WD,s.This is only for V-6 trucks in 2WD chassis.Whenever I weld the side gears to the case it breaks the case.They have a different carrier and I cant find anything to use except Lincoln lockers.Nissan doesn't make anything for it,nor does lockright.
