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.

Hi,
I stripped my front hubs today and found no circlips at all.
My truck has run well on and off road since 2008 when I got it so my question is what do they actually do and what size are they as I will have to go to an engineering supply place to get them if someone could post a photo of one and a size this would be very helpful.
Check inside your locking hubs. Do you have auto or manual hubs mate? Check embedded in the grease.
Note there are 2 groove on the axle. The circlip will fit into that groove. The inside groove is used when you have auto hubs and the groove near the end of the axle is used when you have manual hubs. Put a vernier on it

If you pull the spindle off, it has a seal on the inside of it. The cv is hard up against this, if the circlip is installed. Without the circlip, this could cause a transfer of cv grease through the spindle and into the hubs themselves.
IMO and should be taken with a grain of salt.
Hi,
I am out in the boonies and don't have a vernier, I can use a bit of string and work out the diameter of the groove that way. My closest engineering supplies mob is 50 km away.
Is it a circlip like you would find in a gearbox or does it have two holes in it for the pliers to go in?
I have manual hubs and have felt around inside the hub and can't feel anything.
My hub seals are showing signs of weeping this year for the first time ever, is the lack of circlips likely to be the main culprit?
It was the infrequent wobble at 60 km that started me looking at the wheel bearings.
This is what you're after

Thanks, One real annoyance is I bought a rebuild kit and all I can see it doesn't have is these clips.
