Genuine Nissan Diff Pinion Nut - Nissan Navara D40 Thai Rear

This genuine Nissan pinion nut is located on the rear differential and is responsible for securing the drive flange to the pinion gear. This nut is crucial for setting the correct pinion bearing preload. It is often damaged or stretched during removal and is considered a single-use item that should be replaced whenever the pinion seal is changed or the differential is rebuilt.

Failure to replace a worn or damaged pinion nut can lead to it backing off. This causes severe driveline vibration and excessive play, which will destroy the crown wheel and pinion gears in a short amount of time. This results in a complete differential failure, a costly repair, and a vehicle that can't be driven.

Features & Benefits

• Genuine Nissan Part: Ensures the quality and direct-fit you expect for a critical driveline component.
• High-Tensile Steel: Manufactured to Nissan's specifications to achieve the correct torque and preload without stretching or failing.
• Stake Design: The nut is designed to be staked or peened into a groove on the pinion shaft, acting as a lock to prevent it from loosening under vibration and load.
• Correct Specification: Guarantees a secure fitment on the factory pinion gear threads, which is vital for driveline safety and reliability.
