    How do you measure the end play of the drive axle and adjust the snap-ring if needed for the 2004 Nissan Frontier? Posted by Customer
    A:
    To measure the end play of the drive axle, use a dial indicator. If the end play is satisfactory, remove the snap-ring, measure its thickness with a micrometer, and install a new one of the same thickness. If the end play isn't within the specified range, install a snap-ring of the proper thickness, as snap-rings are available in various thicknesses.
