Gear Oil, Greasing, Battery questions. HELP.

[maasa2002]

Hi Everyone

I used to have Toyota Land Cruiser. I sold it and bought a 2005 wagon, 4door, 4.5 gasoline engine, S, 9passenger, Manual transmission Nissan Patrol Y61.
The engine is TB45e
The transmission is FS5R50B
The axle (differential) is HG41
The VIN is (JNbBY11Y25X508XXX)

Here is a pic of the plate


I have some questions
1. About the greasing
Greasing points of the shaft are clear.
Almost as this pic


but the other points I couldn't find....

I mean, when I had the landcruiser the point were clear, this pic will show you


The question is, HOW to grease the front leather points??

2. About the gear oil. It's manual as I mentioned.
I didn't find SAE API GL-4 75W-90. I only found this




What I found is Mobil API GL-4 SAE 80W90. I found another single grade such GL-4 90, not multi-grade.
Some experts say it's OK, because of the weather he (hot temperature ) from 35-50 °C degrees during the Summer. In winter it's 20-40 °C.

My question is: Is it OK to use it?

3. About the battery. What is the perfect size of it? 70 AH or 65AH?

4. I bought a central locker. When the technical install it. He connect it to a one fuse from the cabin fuse box. He said it is the only way.
Here is a pic



5. The axle (differential) is HG41. What is the code of the differential? Is it Limited Slip?


That's ALL for NOW

Sorry.

That is a very bad wiring effort and WILL fail, it needs to be done properly with a crimped join or soldered .
As for grease points check the tail shaft uni's one or two pumps is fine the front steering you'll find one side has
sealed ball joints so again only a couple of pumps of grease will do. As for the grease I have no idea they
are some extremes in temperatures thats for sure. Get that wire fixed properly first though.
is your battery a start or AUX [2nd] battery? a start battery needs CCA's so a 650 CCA plus would be fine
I run a 115 AH aux battery and a 750CCA start battery

Thanks threedogs.
I think it will fail. but is it safe?

And yes. I'm asking about the steering column greasing, where are its points?
The perfect grease as I read is NLGI No.2. I found it.

But what about the gear oil??

Tha battery, I'm talking about the main, not the second extra battery. 70D23R(L) or 65D31R(L) ??


Thanks again.

I doubt it will cause a fire but it may blow fuses.
Install the best battery you can afford

But where can I connect the central locking red cable (wire) to another except fuses?

1. There are only grease points on the tailshafts as far as I'm aware.

2. The gl4 80-90 oil will be fine mate.

3. Use the battery that has the best capacity for your needs.

4. The central locking will need to be wired another way. It will just need a fused power from somewhere. If the wire pictured is a main power for the central locking you could just take it from the battery (fused of course).

5. Hg41 means you have 4.11:1 diff ratios. The rear diff unless equipped with a factory locker will be an lsd.

There are fuse double adapters available off ebay or from jacar which would be heaps better than that. You said an electrician did this?

That is a piss poor effort right there. This bloke should not call him self a technician.

Your 'electrical technician' is an idiot, go somewhere else.

The item posted by 4bye4 is a very good solution if you don't run a seperate circuit.
Make sure you put it in the correct orientation (adapter leg common to both fuses to the buss/supply side of the fuse) and you can easily do it yourself

1. I thought so about the grease points, I found no points in the steering.

2. I'm gonna use 70ah battery. But I asked about the factory battery size.

3. Yes. it's bad wiring.

4. So, how can be sure about the differentials code.

Thanks again.
