Secure your differential setup with this Genuine Nissan Diff Pinion Nut, designed for Nissan Patrol GQ Y60 and GU Y61 models fitted with H233 differentials. This OEM stake-style nut is used on the pinion flange and is critical for maintaining correct pinion bearing preload and ensuring the differential remains properly assembled under load.

Over time, the pinion nut can become rounded, stretched, or damaged due to high torque installation and removal during diff servicing. Reusing a worn nut is not recommended, as it may fail to maintain correct preload, potentially leading to noisy operation, premature bearing wear, oil leaks, or catastrophic differential damage.

Manufactured to genuine Nissan specifications, this direct-fit replacement ensures secure locking, correct torque retention, and long-term durability in both front and rear H233 differential applications.
