    Swivel Housing

    Hi All,
    Just after some advice on the Swivel Housing's in the attached photos, is there a current problem or possible future problem that anyone can determine form these photos? If so what maintenance / repairs may I need to do?

    Thanks in advance

    A swivel rebuild kit off eBay should set you right. Straight forward to change. If you ignore it, it will only get worse.

    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.
