Thread: Axle differences?

hope someone can shed some light on this, i was looking through the list of cardone axles for b13 se-r and b14 model with vlsd (200sx 95-97) and cardone lists the part number 666061 (front left axle) for the b13 with 2.0L for both auto and manual, but that same number is listed for the 200sx 2.0L front left auto only, then lists the part 666172 for the front left manual trans. any reason why the b13 left axle interchanges between auto and manual but the b14 200sx has specific ones? did they build a slightly stronger one for the b14 manual? i have a b14 sentra with a b13 manual trans and i believe i have b13 axle, i know they are lsd axles for sure.

Actually, some say that the B13 axles were stronger/better.

Regardless, the VLSD axles are interchangeable between the B13 and B14.

I pulled the axles for my NX from a B14.

Yeah it just didnt make sense to me that an axle that is supposed to work with the b13 vlsd trans is the same axle thats supposed to only work with an auto b14 trans
