    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    cheers for that info mate! i pulled it all down yesterday and there definitely was too much grease in there, only been a day and haven’t driven more than 55-60klms but no leaks yet. i took a really good look at my stub axle and i think i’ve concluded that is the issue. very significant lip worn into the top half of the seal contact face. i’ll see how i go this week, but if it leaks again it’s 110% the stub axle 🤠🤙🏼
