    I have an '08 Armada with 315k miles. The Armada has an independent rear suspension vs the Titan solid axle so maybe they have different pumpkins. I changed my gear oil at 200k (probably the first time) and never had a problem. Mechanically these things are solid. There's a reason Nissan named the 5.6 the "Endurance". The only things that have needed replacement are the oil cooler adapter seals (where the oil filter screws in) at 250k, starter at 280k ( you'll be cussing Nissan for putting it under the intake), the alternator at 300k, valve cover seals at 310k. The exhaust manifold is known to crack, pretty sure mine is but I'm saving up for some Cajun headers. If you don't have the Magnaflow 24" 2-1 muffler, you need one plus the resonator delete. The trans pan has a drain plug. After about 50 - 75k it should be drained every other oil change or 10k. It's only a qt or 2, just measure what comes out and replace it. There's guys that have over 600k on the 5.6 Endurance without a major overhaul.

    • @williamthompson969
      @williamthompson969 3 роки тому +1

      I totally agree with the endurance part. I'm at 329k with only minor issues like you stated. And yes the starter is a mf to change

    • @450ktm520
      @450ktm520 2 роки тому

      300 k, as a green sticker and license plate offroad truck. Trans went out at the 300k but it because we tried to made it into a sequential shifting the abuse destroyed the wiring connections.
      Suspension is the only thing not OEM. Everything else is OEM and hasn't been changed. Other than the service maintenance parts.
      The motor was pegged in the hot for 15 min in the desert trying to make it back to base camp. Still running strong.
      Took a fence post or something like it through the front and destroyed the remote oil filter and dumped oil while running 65mph in the desert. Looked down and saw the oil pressure drop. Did a bypass to make it back to camp. Dam motor still going.
      No leaks from seals... big fan of the first gen. Titan. Going to buy a couple more rolling chassis

    07 titan here. My rear axle had the same whining as yours plus I had leaking axle seals 4 times! Replaced the oem differential with a Tru Trac and applied ultra black rtv to the new axle seals. Has been holding up fine ever since.
    What sucks the most about the 04-07 axles is that the payload capacity is embarrassingly low compared to the 08 titans. My payload is a measly 1039lbs while the 08s have double that!
    Thank you for this video and showing us it's not that difficult to swap axles. Been thinking of doing this for a while. Although at this point I don't want to give up the Tru Trac and the 08 seals aren't guaranteed not to leak.

    From what I know, there's no vent or some sort of pressure release on the pumpkin. So the pressure will make its own vent by blowing the gaskets next to the wheels

    07 titan... changed out the stock axle for a Curries G2. For its plug and play, 9" carrier, 4.11 ratio... stock diff blew up during hard abuse.
    Doesnt matter if its OEM or aftermarket, Curries driver side seal leaked after 4 years of really hard use. I noticed the vent filter was gummed up. Ambient temps around 100, sustained high speeds when it started to leak. Keep that vent clean if you drive off pavement.

    The problem with the 04-07 rear ends is they have inadequate cooling around the differential, which leads to them cooking seals and leaking fluid

    • @joshmurphy5295
      @joshmurphy5295 Рік тому +1

      The problem was a lack of an axle vent. Builds up pressure and blows the seals out.

  • @Kronos5.6
    @Kronos5.6 3 роки тому

    based on what ive read its supposed to be because the differential doesnt have some kind of bleed valve that most diffs in trucks have. So without that bleeder valve it builds up a lot of pressure and heat in ceratin situations, causing them to break and leak out of the diff cover or the hubs

    • @SeizureNoodles

      all trucks have the bleed valve, and it usually gets clogged on all trucks, which is why the vent mod is usually done to fix the issue.

    So the rear end on the pumpkin builds pressure. that's why it blows out seals. Drillingl it out,

  • @loganmoffett15
    @loganmoffett15 2 роки тому

    The rear end problems is because there is no vent tubes in the rear end so it blows the seals out and will leak no matter how many times you replace the seals never had any problem with the pumpkin itself or gearing just have to make sure it has fluid so depending on how bad the rear end leaks you may add fluid every oil change

    • @TheKKCody0824
      @TheKKCody0824 Рік тому

      Having the exact same issue. Which year is compatible with an ‘05 Titan, I think he installed an ‘08. But as far as where to get to part for cheap (because a brand new rear axle will tax you up to $2500) is at a junkyard, a pick a part place for sure but use google to get places near you.

    • @greenbean9504

  • @randyx007
    @randyx007 3 роки тому

    Don't need to swap the diff out when there is an easier solution to the problem.
    They fail because the axle seals leak, obviously. They leak because the bearing cage/retainer (whatever you call it) warps and then allows play in the axle, causing the seal to leak more. Everyone just replaces the axle seals/bearings and then go out right away and leak more.
    NO ONE addresses the axle flange/bearing retainer. It is the part that bolts up to the hub and keeps the axle in place.

It's $20 go to AutoZone or O'Reilly's and get a vent tube and it in and use zip ties for your hoses and run your hose all the way to your passenger tail light I'll just help you build Lil daddy
