Dodgeman, how rare are the discbrake rearend h190's and do they bolt into a 1200? did you get an extremly good deal in getting one for $75?
I am not familiar with the various Nissan models that used the H190 diferential, but it would seem that series three B/birds [910] used them across the board, so one from an LX wagon would be a leaf spring type with discs. The LX & TRX car ones were also disc braked, but used a coil spring suspension.
Do they [rear axle assembly] bolt into a 1200? Not even close. They are much wider both at the spring mounts as well as overall.
In Nissanspeak, the "H" means "diferential" & the numbers after it represent the diameter of the crownwheel, in millimeters. The H190 diferential will not fit either the 1200 car housing [H145] or the ute housing [H165]
As the numbers got bigger, so too did the physical size of the diff, & the weight increased noticeably as well.
As i wrote before, there's a junk ute, complete with it's rear axle assembly, down the road a bit at the right price, & yes, i probably did do a fairly good deal on the TRX rear axle that i bought. I had done quite a bit of business with that particular wrecker at the time & he probably took pity on me.
