This is a genuine Nissan front hub seal, designed for Nissan Navara D40, D23, and Pathfinder R51 models. Located on the back of the front wheel hub assembly, its critical job is to keep high-temperature grease inside the hub and to protect your wheel bearings from contamination like water, mud, and grit.
When this seal perishes or is damaged, contaminants will quickly destroy the bearings. Signs of a faulty seal include grease leaking from the hub area or a grinding noise from your wheels. A failed seal can lead to a catastrophic hub failure, leaving you stranded and facing a much more expensive repair.
Please check vehicle fitment to confirm compatibility with your vehicle. Please contact us with your VIN details if you require further assistance to confirm fitment.
Replacing this seal is a moderate workshop job that requires disassembly of the front wheel hub. Access to a vehicle lift and specialised tools for correctly pressing in seals and bearings is recommended.
For a complete and reliable repair, it is highly recommended to replace the front wheel bearings and pack them with new high-temperature wheel bearing grease when replacing this seal. You should also inspect and replace the hub nut and any associated split pins or lock washers if required.
