I picked up a nismo diff with 5 bolt stub shafts but can't find the snap rings that hold them in anywhere, please let me know where I can find them.. I've ordered them from Nissan to find out a week after they discontinued them, please let me know

I'll give them a try but if Nissan doesn't make them anymore I doubt any genuine oarts that get theirs from Nissan will have them, I'll give it a shot though, also the part number is 32204-78000..Also looking for 32205-78000

That's what I thought but my driver side axle popped out and leaked everywhere, had to tow the car home

OEM parts sellers have inventory. You might be able to find some NOS by calling around to various dealerships.

Make sure you check inside the diff. On VLSD's, one side has snap ring inside, other side is on the stub.

I couldnd find any for my fc...used a piece of coathanger carefully bent and measured...if it pops out can push back in but better to have the clips...suppose could pull off another cv axle set...
