New Zealand Datsun Club

can any one tell me if I can swap a c330 diff head into a 1985 720 ute.
I belive my diff is a h190

Whats a C330?
a 230, and 330 series 240/260C diff should work. (I think the axles are the same spline)
But a C33 Laurel diff will be chalk and cheese.

Im pretty sure the C330's are the pillared 260c sedan and the 331 is the hardtop.

Wrong!

Mine's H330, Chris's Gloria hardtop was a C331 and I'm pretty sure John's Cedric hardtop was a H332? Could have been C332.

So whats a C330 - my hardtop 231 laurel was KHC231.

Would C330 be a pillared Cedric sedan rather than a H330 260C sedan (some pillared ones came with cedric on the rear taillight garnish instead of Datsun.

Anyway - could you put up a pic of the car its out of to resolve the issue of what car its out of?? lol

dont know what a c330 is or what it looks like , got offered a diff out of one from a guy on trade me, thats why I asked the question hoping someone would know the answer, google hasnt been help too much either but will carry on .
dont want to spend a grand on a mdoified toyota diff if I dont have too.

Perhaps C= Gloria, H= Cedric?

Pure speculation of course.

SOrry to high Jack your thread haha,

If you can get the whole diff it may bolt in if the splines are wrong.

They are both H190 so the only thing to check will be the splines on the axles match up lol

cheers Brock

just make sure it's a solid rear axle, and not a c33 diff.

all is good in datsun world.
an old datsun / nissan wrecker guy in the far north has got me a 3.7 ratio diff drum to drum for $100 delivered.

cant complain at that

yee haaa
