how can i tell if my tranny is lock or nonlock?

 

Did we not just tell you?

 

 

RS5F50V = VLSD
RS5F50A = Open Diff

 

how can you tell in an 02?

 

For 5.5 gen:

RS6F51A - open diff.
RS6F51H - Helical LSD

 

mines a 2002 and it says REF04B????

 

RE4F04B - 4 speed auto with open diff

The only auto LSD I am aware of is the RE4F04W used in the 01 AE edition.

 

There's a RE4F04V that fits the 95-99 Max - I've got one now in my '99 GXE. The driver's side axle has to be changed at the same time. Mine's from a '99 Infiniti. Works good at the strip.....

 

i guess the open diff works pretty good at spinning both wheels. Ive seen many hondas do their burnouts in the waterbox at the track and only spin one tire, but i did 4 separate runs, each one with a burnout, and everytime i got both tires loose. Nissan power and engineering for ya.

 

VLSD/HLSD are only good for conrnering IMO, since you will not annihilate the inner tire when exiting a turn ... (or 4 wheeling )

 

4-wheelin in the max...ive tried to to an extent , summer tires dont work well in mud.
