    Hey brother I literally am going through exactly what you just covered in this video we have a 2016 pathfinder we just took it in for an oil change and we were told that we had a leak from our transmission took it to a transmission shop they said it’s a transfer case they obviously just want us to get a new one the job calls for about $4500 but that’s not even mentioning like you said that axle so if you have any tips tricks or if I should just did the car all together please let me know cause this video definitely just open my eyes a lot more

    I am replacing my cv axle on 2014 pathfinder, the shaft bearing bracket you mention with 4 bolts, apparently its common for that bearing to seize in that bracket, is it possible to get to those 4 bolts just having jack stands? Thank you

    Hey bro, I’m working on my 2014 Nissan pathfinder CV axle passenger is there anyway I can get a part number for the outer seal that goes into the transfer case

      Call the Nissan dealership. They’ll ask for the last 8 of the vehicle vin number. That’s the only place you’ll get these harder to get seals bud.

    Hi Dave, please, I need the name or part number for the little "seal" you show at 1:27. I have been trying to get it at the dealership but they dont know what I am talking about. It doesnt show up as a part of the transfer case

      I believe it’s called the output shaft inner and putter seals.

      Yes sir! I replaced all the seals. I was afraid it would leak otherwise. Thank you for the compliment.

      @@mechanicdave4899 for the rear output shaft seal do you think I can just replace it without taking out the transfer case ? by removing the drive shaft and popping open the back and yank out the seal and replace ?

    Dave - the comments are off on your BMW 328D transfer case video so I can't say anything there but I am wondering if your transfer case has given you any issues after adding the Loctite to the splines? I am thinking of getting one and didn't know if that solution is 100% or not. Sorry for the random post on the wrong vid but I didn't know of another way to contact you.

      It’s all good. It helped and I have not had any issues. I do change the fluid annually and I use GL-5 diff fluid 85-140 lol little thick, but better than the water they call for.

    in order to put all the seals that go on the passenger side of transfercase did you have to open up the transfer case?

      It books for 8 hours. The hardest part is removing the exhaust system. Use heat/map gas and take your time.
