Genuine Nissan Rear Axle Diff Seal - Nissan Pathfinder R51 2005-2013

This seal is located on the rear differential housing where the axle shaft enters. Its job is to keep the differential oil in and the dirt and water out. When these seals fail, they cause a differential oil leak, which can lead to major mechanical damage if left unattended.

A leaking axle seal is a serious issue. Loss of differential oil will cause a lack of lubrication for the crown wheel, pinion, and bearings, resulting in catastrophic failure of your differential. Replacing a failed seal is a simple and cost-effective way to prevent a very expensive repair bill down the track.

Installation Notes

Replacing a failed axle seal is typically a workshop job, as it requires removing the axle shaft to access and replace the old seal. A significant loss of differential oil can starve the crown wheel, pinion, and bearings of lubrication, resulting in catastrophic failure and a very expensive repair bill. You will need fresh differential oil to top up what was lost during the leak and the replacement process.
