1. Apply a coat of Genuine Nissan PSF or equivalent to oil seal lip and to the circumference of oil seal. Using proper tool, such as
hand press machine, install it to body assembly.
NOTE:
Do not reuse oil seal.
2. Apply a coat of Genuine Nissan PSF or equivalent to drive shaft assembly and press drive shaft assembly into body assembly
with suitable tool, then install snap ring.
NOTE:
Do not reuse snap ring.
3. Apply a coat of Genuine Nissan PSF or equivalent to O-ring and Install O-ring into body assembly.
NOTE:
Do not reuse O-ring.
4. Install side plate to body assembly.
5. Install lock pin into lock pin hole, and install cam-ring as shown in the figure.

When installing cam-ring, turn carved face with a letter (E) of
it to rear cover.
CAUTION:
Do not confuse the assembling direction of cam ring. If
cam ring is installed facing the incorrect direction, it may

7. Place the J-34309-11 “R200A” pinion height adapter onto the gauge plate and tighten it by hand.
CAUTION:
Make sure all machined surfaces are clean.
8. Position the side bearing discs, J-25269-4, and arbor firmly into the side bearing bores. Install the bearing caps and tighten bear-
ing cap mounting bolts to the specified torque. Refer to RFD-18,
"COMPONENTS" .
9. Select the correct standard pinion height adjusting washer thick- ness. Select by using a standard gauge of 3 mm (0.12 in) and
your J-34309-101 feeler gauge. Measure the distance between
the J-34309-11 pinion height adapter including the standard
gauge and the arbor.
10. Write down exact measurement (the value of feeler gauge).
11. Correct the pinion height washer size by referring to the “pinion head number”.
There are two numbers painted on the drive pinion. The first
one refers to the drive pinion and drive gear as a matched
set. This number should be the same as the number on the
drive gear. The second number is the “pinion head height
number”. It refers to the ideal pinion height from standard
for quietest operation. Use the following chart to determine
the correct pinion height washer.

On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceNES000HU
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component status (wear,
damage) are normal.
INSPECTION OF BALL JOINT END PLAY
Measure axial end play by installing and moving up/down with an
iron pry bar or something similar between suspension arm and axle.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot.
SHOCK ABSORBER INSPECTION
Check shock absorber for oil leakage, damage and replace if necessary.
Wheel Alignment InspectionNES000HV
DESCRIPTION

Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions” means that fuel, engine cool-
ant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats in designated positions.
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION

Check tires for improper air pressure and wear.

Check road wheels for runout.

Check wheel bearing axial end play.

Check ball joint axial end play of suspension arm.

Check shock absorber operation.

Check each mounting point of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.

Check each link, arm and member for cracks, deformation, and other damage.

Check vehicle posture.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

A four-wheel thrust alignment should be performed.
–This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel is
centered.
–The alignment rack itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The rack should be checked to ensure that it is level.

Make sure the machine is properly calibrated.
–Your alignment equipment should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
–Check with the manufacturer of your specific equipment for their recommended Service/Calibration
Schedule. Standard value
Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)

THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT:
Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual.

When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
–The alignment specifications programmed into your machine that operate these indicators may not be cor-
rect.
–This may result in an ERROR.

Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional “Rolling Compensation” method to “com-
pensate” the sensors (alignment targets or head units). DO NOT use this “Rolling Compensation”
method.
–Use the “Jacking Compensation Method”. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the
vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.
–See Instructions in the alignment machine you're using for more information on this.
CAMBER INSPECTION

Measure camber of both right and left wheels with a suitable
alignment gauge and adjust in accordance with the following
procedures.
If outside the standard value, adjust with adjusting bolt in front
lower link.
NOTE:
After adjusting camber, be sure to check toe-in.
TOE-IN
If toe-in is not within the specification, adjust with adjusting bolt in
rear lower link.
CAUTION:
Be sure to adjust equally on RH and LH side with adjusting bolt.
If toe-in is not still within the specification, inspect and replace any
damaged or worn rear suspension parts. Standard value
Camber : Refer to RSU-18, "

1. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage. If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel runout.
a. Remove tire from aluminum wheel and mount on a tire balance machine.
b. Set dial indicator as shown in the figure.
STEEL WHEEL
1. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage. If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel runout.
a. Remove tire from steel wheel and mount wheel on a tire balance machine.
b. Set two dial indicators as shown in the figure.
c. Set each dial indicator to 0.
d. Rotate wheel and check dial indicators at several points around the circumference of the wheel.
e. Calculate runout at each point as shown below.
f. Select maximum positive runout value and the maximum nega- tive value.
Add the two values to determine total runout.
In case a positive or negative value is not available, use the
maximum value (negative or positive) for total runout.
If the total runout value exceeds the limit, replace steel wheel. Wheel runout (Dial indicator value):

REMOVAL
1. Remove inner and outer balance weights from the road wheel. CAUTION:
Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.
2. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the road wheel. CAUTION:

Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.

After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT

If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,
select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for road wheels.
1. Set road wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply outer unbal- ance value by 5/3 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with
a value closest to the calculated value above and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the
designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:

Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.

Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the
mating surface of the road wheel.
Indicated unbalance value × 5/3 = balance weight to be installed
Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz) × 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) = 40 g (1.41 oz) balance
weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.
Example:
37.4 = 35 g (1.23 oz)
37.5 = 40 g (1.41 oz)
a. Install balance weight in the position shown in the figure.
b. When installing balance weight to road wheels, set it into the grooved area on the inner wall of the road wheel as shown in the
figure so that the balance weight center is aligned with the wheel
balancer indication position (angle).
CAUTION:

Always use genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.

Balance weights are unreusable; always replace with new
ones.

Do not install more than three sheets of balance weight.
