Time to put it all back together.
Put the GU locknut on.
This is a hand tight initally but then I used a pin punch and hammer to get it completely tight. You could make or buy an appropriate tool.

Put the lock washer on.
You need to have it so that holes in the washer line up with the two threaded holes in the locknut. So you may have to take it back off and tighten the locknut some more.

Put the two screws in.
I put low strength thread locker on these as probably not a good idea for them to come loose. The standard nissan ones are 4mm x 6mm phillips cheese head set screws really easy to strip the head. I'm going to find some hex socket head set screws to replace them.
There also appears to be a groove here to take a circlip on the axle but neither side had one.

Replace the circlip
I found this really frustrating on the first one as well. The axle would keep moving inwards when I tried to put the circlip over it. So pin punch in the center hole and pushed to one side to hold it and slip the circlip on, no problem.

Notes
I cleaned and regreased the freewheeling hub whilst doing this.
Used aviation form a gasket when reinstalling the freewheeling hub outer.
You could replace/repack the bearings whilst doing this. However you need to remove the wheel, brake caliper and hub to repack the bearings properly.
