[VK45DE]
CYLINDER BLOCK
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
c. Install main bearings paying attention to the direction.

Main bearing with oil hole and groove goes on cylinder block.
The one without them goes on main bearing cap.

Before installing main bearings, apply engine oil to the bear-
ing surface (inside). Do not apply engine oil to the back sur-
face, but thoroughly clean it.

When installing, align main bearing stopper protrusion to cut-
out of cylinder block and main bearing caps.

Ensure the oil holes on cylinder block and those on the corre-
sponding bearing are aligned.
4. Install pilot converter to crankshaft, if removed.

With drift [outer diameter: approx. 35 mm (1.38 in)], press-fit
as far as it will go.

Press-fit pilot converter with its chamfering side facing crank-
shaft as shown in the figure.

It is possible to remove pilot converter without hoisting engine
with engine stand.
5. Install crankshaft to cylinder block.

While turning crankshaft by hand, make sure it turns smoothly.
6. Install main bearing caps.

Align the identification number to the journal position to install.

Install the upper side of the identification number facing the
front of engine. (The number shall be read correctly from the
rear of engine.)

Using plastic hammer or similar tool, tap them lightly to seat
them on the installation position.
NOTE:
Main bearing cap cannot be replaced as a single parts, because
it is machined together with cylinder block.

FRONT OIL SEAL
Revision: 2006 December 2006 FX35/FX45
INSTALLATION
1. Apply multi-purpose grease to front oil seal lips.
2. Using the drifts, install front oil seal as shown in figure.
CAUTION:

Do not reuse oil seal.

When installing, do not incline oil seal.
3. Align the matching mark (B) of drive pinion with the matching mark (A) of companion flange, and then install the companion
flange (1).
4. Apply anti-corrosion oil to the thread and seat of new drive pin- ion lock nut, and temporarily tighten drive pinion lock nut to drive
pinion.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse drive pinion lock nut.
5. Tighten to drive pinion lock nut, while adjust total preload torque.
CAUTION:

Adjust to the lower limit of the drive pinion lock nut tight-
ening torque first.

After adjustment, rotate drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3
times to check for unusual noise, rotation malfunction,
and other malfunctions.

If measured value is out of the specification, remove final
drive assembly and disassemble drive pinion parts to check
and adjust each part. Refer to FFD-13, "
Removal and Installa-
tion (VQ35DE Models)" ,FFD-15, "Removal and Installation (VK45DE Models)" and FFD-17, "Disas-
sembly and Assembly" .
6. Install front propeller shaft. Refer to PR-5, "
Removal and Installation" .
7. Install side shaft assembly.
8. Install front drive shaft both. Refer to FAX-12, "
Removal and Installation (Left Side)" , FAX-13, "Removal
and Installation (Right Side)" .
9. Refill gear oil to the final drive and check oil level. Refer to FFD-8, "
FILLING" .
10. Check the final drive for oil leakage. Refer to FFD-8, "
OIL LEAKAGE AND OIL LEVEL" .

13. Remove side bearing inner race. To prevent damage to bearing, engage puller jaws in groove
().
CAUTION:

To prevent damage to the side bearing and drive gear,
place copper plates between these parts and vise.

It is not necessary to remove side bearing inner race
except it is replaced.
14. For proper reinstallation, paint matching marks on one differen- tial case assembly.
CAUTION:
For matching marks, use paint. Do not damage differential
case and drive gear.
15. Remove drive gear mounting bolts.
16. Tap drive gear off differential case assembly with a soft hammer. CAUTION:
Tap evenly all around to keep drive gear from bending.
17. Remove lock pin of pinion mate shaft with a punch from drive gear side.
18. Remove pinion mate shaft. Tool number A: ST33051001 (J-22888-20)

Content Conditions and Measures
Hypoid gear

If the gear teeth do not mesh or line-up correctly, determine the cause and adjust or replace as nec-
essary.

If the gears are worn, cracked, damaged, pitted or chipped (by friction) noticeably, replace with new
drive gear and drive pinion as a set.
Bearing

If any chipped (by friction), pitted, worn, rusted or scratched mark, or unusual noise from the bearing
is observed, replace as a bearing assembly (as a new set).
Side gear and Pinion mate
gear

If any cracks or damage on the surface of the tooth is found, replace.

If any worn or chipped mark on the contact sides of the thrust washer is found, replace.
Side gear thrust washer and
pinion mate thrust washer

If it is chipped (by friction), damaged, or unusually worn, replace.

ADJUSTMENT AND SELECTION OF ADJUSTING WASHERS (SHIMS)
Differential Side Gear Clearance

Assemble the differential parts if they are disassembled. Refer to FFD-34, "Differential Assembly" .
1. Place differential case straight up so that side gear to be mea- sured comes upward.
2. Using feeler gauge, measure the clearance between side gear back and differential case at 3 different points, while rotating
side gear. Average the 3 readings, and then measure the clear-
ance of the other side as well.
CAUTION:
To prevent side gear from tilting, insert feeler gauges with
the same thickness from both sides.
3. If the back clearance is outside the specification, use a thicker/ thinner side gear thrust washer to adjust. Refer to FFD-39, "
Side
Gear Thrust Washer" .
CAUTION:
Select a side gear thrust washer for right and left individu-
ally.
Side Bearing Preload
1. Make sure all parts are clean. Also, make sure the bearings are well lubricated with gear oil.
2. Press-fit side bearing outer race into side retainer with tool.
CAUTION:

At first, using a hammer, tap bearing outer race until it
becomes flat to side retainer.

Do not reuse side bearing outer race.
PDIA0460E
Side gear back clearance specification:
0.2 mm (0.008 in) or less.
(Each gear should rotate smoothly without excessive
resistance during differential motion.)
When the back clearance is large: Use a thicker thrust washer.
When the back clearance is small: Use a thinner thrust washer.

FUEL SYSTEMPFP:17503
Checking Fuel LinesNBS004IG
Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap and fuel tank for improper attach-
ment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterio-
ration.
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.
General PrecautionsNBS004IH
WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the following.

Put a “CAUTION: FLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.

Be sure to work in a well ventilated area and furnish workshop with a CO2 fire extinguisher.

Do not smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open flames and sparks away from the work area.
CAUTION:

Use gasoline required by the regulations for octane number. Refer to GI-6, "Precautions for Fuel
(Unleaded Premium Gasoline Recommended)" .

Before removing fuel line parts, carry out the following procedures:
–Put drained fuel in an explosion-proof container and put the lid on securely. Keep the container in
safe area.
–Release fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-86, "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VQ35DE)
or EC-746, "
FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" (VK45DE).
–Disconnect negative battery terminal.

Always replace O-ring and clamps with new ones.

Do not kink or twist tubes when they are being installed.

Do not tighten hose clamps excessively to avoid damaging hoses.

After connecting fuel tube quick connectors, make sure
quick connectors are secure.
Ensure that connector and resin tube do not contact any
adjacent parts.

After installing tubes, make sure there is no fuel leakage at
connections in the following steps.
–Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch
“ON” (with engine stopped). Then check for fuel leaks at
connections.
–Start engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at con-
nections.

Use only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replacement.
If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the “MIL” may come
on.

For servicing “Evaporative Emission System” parts, refer to
EC-39, "
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM" (VQ35DE) or
EC-699, "
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM" (VK45DE).

For servicing“On Board Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR)”
parts, refer to EC-46, "
ON BOARD REFUELING VAPOR
RECOVERY (ORVR)" (VQ35DE) or EC-706, "ON BOARD
REFUELING VAPOR RECOVERY (ORVR)" (VK45DE).
