(1/4) > >>

Toppo:
hi  i  clean the aut ohub out and regrease it ? as my drivers side one is clicking ? also do they go back in a certain way ??? any pics would be nice or a manual ,, as i need to tighten my wheel bearings up anyway , thort i might do both while im there , hope some one can help  cheers mark
ive just got this frontera , cheep px at me m8's garage , its a N-REG 2.8 LBW , seems to runs well , but i was trying the 4 wheel drive out seems to work but got this clicking ..

Drift:
The clicking is very likely to be the circlip come off the drive shaft, once you get the hub to bits its really easy to replace, just remember there are three grub screws on the plate that holds the bearing adjuster in place, they can round off easy but they will come out, they dont have to be very tight when replaced as the backing plate of the hub will hold them in.


Worst case for the clicking will be the cv joint on its way out but this is unlikely if the car hasnt been off road much.

Will try and get you some pictures tonight when I get home.

shinyheed:
sometimes the ends the circlips grip onto wear a bit and you can find the clip keeps popping off, sometimes a new clip will cure this, on mine it didn't, in the end we put a tiny weld on the clip to hold it in place, but little enough that it could be forced off if the hub needed stripped again

hope this helps, and don't use it off road with the hub clicking as the slip on the hub often causes the front diffs to break
