Q:
How do you measure the end play of the drive axle and adjust the snap-ring if needed for the 2003 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.

Q:
Is it recommended for a do-it-yourselfer to perform an overhaul of the differential for the 1998 Nissan Frontier? Posted by Customer
A:
Overhauling the differential is not typically a cost-effective endeavor for a do-it-yourselfer. Instead, any further work involving the differential should be entrusted to a qualified repair shop with the appropriate expertise and equipment.
