q45 diff....which bearings?

[robbie2883]

ok...trying to find out which bearings i need to use for a q45 diff. i know it's a r200 style case but it's not exact and the outputs are beefier. so which bearrings and seals do i use? r230 or r200? the auto part stores don't have what i need listed and infiniti dealer wants a vin, which i obviously don't have, before they'll help out with part numbers. i searched but couldn't find what i needed. thanks for any help

also...mainly looking for the front pinion bearing and seal but need to know which for all 4 bearings and side seals.

what do you mean bearings. last i checked the q45 diff is pretty close to being a bolt on affair. are you using your s-chassis diff case and using q45 ring and pinion or what?

[robbie2883]

the front and rear pinion bearings are shot. also want to replace the side output shaft bearings and seals and the front pinion seal while it's all apart.

You might have to just grab a vin from a car at the junk yard or something, silly dealerships.

im with this guy. just get a vin off a q45 when you call the stealership. hit up the nismo shop they know the game and will give you a better price then ur local dealer
