Finding this thread very helpful so thank you Mudrunner.
But would you happen to know the part number for the CV brass washer? I cant find it anywhere
Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

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.

It's damaged pretty bad due to breaking the cv, I'll try to hammer and straighten it may be.
Thanks for the reply bud I really appreciate what you have done in this thread.

Thanks so very much for this. So easy to follow
After doing all this I'm not sure what oil for the front diff. The hub is an auto locking thingo ma Bob... how can ya tell if the diff is lsd or not? Just worried about using the wrong oil
Cheers
as far as i know there is not front lsd patrol diffs, only rears. mechanics have told me you can put the same rear lsd oil into the front so thats what i do. i think its more expensive because its lsd but i dont pay for it
Thanks a billion MD. Your posts helped me rebuild my swivels. I bought my 96 gq with serious diff oil leak comin out swivel. I think i did it right cause its not leakin any more😅

Ok so i took these pics last year and thought i had uploaded them but did not.
Here are dome pics for removing the king pin bearings 2 different ways.
Option 1 needs a bearing removal clamp and a vice.
Install in vice loosely so it is just sitting in there hanging from the clamp
Punch and hammer.
Easy job.
Lmm grease is great for the wheel bearings and CV
Option 2 is to use a pair of pointy nose pliers and a flat screw driver. 3 points of contact make light work of it
Remove the lip seal under the bearing. Just wreck it and rip it out. This makes space for the pliers
The taper on the pliers will do the work here. Wedge in and work it.
Screw driver from the other side.
Wahlah.
