    Any idea why gear oil would come out at the differential side when I remove the axle from it? That looks like it should all be sealed

  • @Tuker1954
    @Tuker1954 19 днів тому

    Just did this repair as my pathfinder has a slight vibration when driving but only at around 60km/h and it also has a slight knocking sound when you roll forward slowly from a stop and don’t give it any throttle. The new CV axles made it quieter but the noise and vibration is still there. Could I be looking at a potential issue in my front differential? Maybe transfer case? I’ve ordered oil for both of them and I’ll be giving them both fresh oil, hoping that solves my problem but besides wheel bearings I’m not sure where else to look. Any advice?

    After retightening , the six bolts, when car lift it up in the air at 33ln. would I be required to do it again when full suspension is on the ground.

    can someone tell me what the 6 bolts are that connect the axle to the diff? One of the 6 broke and I need to replace. Any ideas to where i can buy this bolt?

    I have a torn cv boot on a 97 I just bought. New cv axle on passenger side with torn boot less than 10k miles on it. Called Nissan and quoted me 700 just to replace the boot, I know you have to take it all apart anyways. 700 seems way too steep for the amount of labor it takes. I’m not a mechanic but it doesn’t seem like it should cost that much. Am I right or wrong?

  • @olivi3339
    @olivi3339 2 роки тому +1

    How come nobody ever re-greases the needle bearing inside the knuckle??.. That's what the axle shaft is spinning on... It's so easy to do it , when the axle is out.... It also has 200,000 miles on it...... unless you've installed manual locking hubs, those front shafts are spinning all the time while driving...

    Ok so I have a 02 Nissan pathfinder rear wheel drive. I ordered this same part. But when i took the wheel off it looks nothing like how it looks in the video. There was no cv joint on it at all. Is the pathfinder in the video a 4x4?

    What is a fair price I should expect for this type of work from a mechanic? How much for parts and how much for labor? Thanks!

      @SquadBustersAustralia 4 роки тому

      I currently have 3 days to pull this off I'm gonna have to do each side and each CV shaft cost $118 if you shop around, labour your looking around just under 300 depending on the mechanic but I might try do this with my dad

    Anything looks easy when you have an edit button. Don't be fooled people you have to disconnect a lot more than je tells you, I was a fool and now the job is much bigger than it should have been if he would have been up front and honest to what all needs to be disconnected.

    DIY guys beware!!
    Its not just these guys, its other videos too. See the way those nuts came loose right away? That is BS. None of them say anything about the problems you can run into performing this repair. Im in the middle of it now. I had no other option and now its a way bigger problem. If you damage any of the bolts or nuts they are potentially hard to get. I'll learn my fate tomorrow. Vehicle or no Vehicle. Till then I'm dead in the water. I wish this was the only challenge I was under. Maybe i wouldn't feel so bad. Be careful out there.
