Here is an install of the ARB Differential Cover on my 2023 Nissan Frontier Pro-4x. We used the Lube Locker gasket in place of the usual sealant to hopefully have more luck keeping the oil inside the diff cover. #nissan #frontier #nissanfrontier #2024

Dude, I'm back! I just did mine. Thanks to your video, it went like a charm. I was having the damndest time getting the sway bar to stay outta my workspace so I folded it up and zip tied it up to the spare tire chain to keep it out of the way. Worked like a dream. Seriously, I can't thank you enough for documenting!

@CanadianCruisin 4 месяца назад

Glad it helped out. So far mine is holding up strong.

@LR0133 11 дней назад

@@CanadianCruisin what was your torque spec for those four bolts on the rear sway bar? Going to be installing mine soon and I thought that by pulling the rear sway bar away from the differential cover for better work space and getting the cover out and in with the ARB would be best. Thank you guys in advance for any info, can't seem to find it through online.

@HighBloodPressure1776 28 дней назад

The owners manual calls for Hypoid GL5 75-90. Why are you using 75-140?

@DanielGloverTheGreat 4 месяца назад

Ohhhhhhhhh SHIT! Seek and ye shall find. I was asking about which you bought in your last video. Now I get to see you install it?! What a deal! Nice work you guys. Looking forward to doing mine.

@duladrop4252 3 месяца назад

It's more of an assembly issues but Nissan is aware of this and fixes this with the right gasket that lasts... with no charge i think...

@PRO4XKEV 4 месяца назад

I have a 2023 Frontier P4X and my manual says 75w-90 for the rear diff. 80-90w for front. I installed the Nissan Titan aluminum finned rear diff cover from Spicer and I used that Gasket, it is a nice gasket, can be re used to. I notice also that my OEM cover was not sealed correctly from factory.

@CanadianCruisin 4 месяца назад

I believe the 75w-90 is for the non p4x models. It's the c200 rear end if I remember right but I could be wrong

@k1sfd1974 4 месяца назад

@@CanadianCruisin Yes, the nissan rear end (c200) uses the 75w-90 for diff oil. The Dana rear ends use the 75w-140. As your Pro-4x has a Dana part number you are correct with the diff oil you used. I think (I’m pretty sure) that if you have a locking diff, it’s a Dana axle (just in Nissan wrappings). Also, just an FYI tip, if you warm the oil first (put it in a bucket with hot water from your faucet or GENTLE heat from a space heater, etc) it’ll flow much easier when you go to put it in the rear end. Just be sure you wipe off any water.

@CanadianCruisin 4 месяца назад

@k1sfd1974 good to know thank you. And yeah now that you mention the locking diff I think you're right. That would be the difference

@PRO4XKEV 4 месяца назад

@@CanadianCruisin I looked again at my manual and it says 75w-90 for final drive rear axle. There is nothing listed for 75w-140. Nothing says M200 or M226 .

@paulk.1703 3 месяца назад

Rear end for 3rd gen Frontier, they all use M226. Only different is locker equipped and non locker equipped depending on the trim. They all use 75W-90. No more C200

@stephenurban9880 Месяц назад

Solid cover but ARB put WAY too much thought into the redundant drain plug and dipstick.

@peterpowers4851 21 день назад

I do not like how the new cover does not just have the fill plug at the proper level. Why would I want to have to use a dip stick to fill it when it's so much easier just to fill until it comes out of the hole.

@jeremythebeer8609 4 месяца назад

That gasket is so cool. ARB diff cover should be every Pro-4X owners' first upgrade.

@ToothCracker 4 месяца назад

I just recently got a new '23 pro 4x 3 months ago. I'm definitely not a gear head, but I want to get the most out of my truck, and make it last as long as possible. Is this an upgrade that you would recommend doing soon, or waiting until you notice the rear diff leaking? I don't drive the truck all the time. I try to use my old beater as my daily commuter. So it's not racking up a ton a miles.

@jeremythebeer8609 4 месяца назад

@@ToothCracker If you're taking the truck offroad, I would switch out the stock cover for the ARB. It looks cool. With the gasket, it looks even easier to install than using the Permatex goop.

sick video....🤙🏼 I'd like to do this just for the color .... How do i find out which dif cover i need? I have a 2024 pro4x.... How she holding up?

@CanadianCruisin 4 месяца назад

Thanks. It should be the same cover for 2024 and my 2023. If you order from ARB or Z1 offroad they both have the years it fits. I believe they should be identical. So far its holding up great.

@lostnomad60 4 месяца назад

wouldn't a leak be covered under warranty?

@CanadianCruisin 4 месяца назад

Probably but I figured they would probably blame it on the lift and bigger tires so not worth my time. And now it looks way better as well

@jeremythebeer8609 4 месяца назад

I wouldn't even worry... The first thing you should buy for any Pro-4X is the ARB diff cover. Robust cover.

@dohc1974 4 месяца назад

Aren’t the differentials having failures? I’d bet if yours fails Nissan will blame the diff cover as voided warranty. I’m on Facebook frontier group and people (not everyone) are reporting differential failure around 60-80k

hey quick question. do you have any vibration in your steering wheel (over 60 mph) when driving on highway/city?

@CanadianCruisin 4 месяца назад

I get a slight vibration in the wheel only on the highway but that's only started after I added the bigger tires. Not sure if they're not balanced quite right or it it's just from the more aggressive tire on the pavement.

If it isn't leaking I wouldn't worry about it. The breather mod I would invest in though. Apparently the stock breather corrodes and fails pretty easy. I also have a video on my channel of that as well.

@johnnyjayy14 3 месяца назад

I replaced my 04 mustangs rear diff oil last October and it wasn’t that bad except for the bad rotten egg smell, I used royal purple 74-90w I believe, I wanted to get the 140 but since it’s a car that never tows it’s okay. I did buy a lube locker gasket for it but I instead went traditional and used the sealant, kept the gasket for the future because I’ve heard that gaskets aren’t as good as the factory sealant

@MatthewStout 2 месяца назад

I see you did it already and likely have a different video for it, but always quick and smart to replace the axle breather with a tube relication kit. I tell this to anyone who buys a used SUV or truck. I have these same wheels on my Xterra btw and love them. Free little offset with stock suspension.

@johntexan4165 4 месяца назад

What is your lift? Will to bottle fit under there with stock height? That's a nice looking cover! Reasonable price for the upgrade.

@rayangus4057 10 дней назад

Does this void warranty?

@CanadianCruisin 10 дней назад

@rayangus4057 warranty is all under the dealership and nissans discretion. If they can deem that the specific part swapped out caused a issue they can void warranty. But they have to be able to prove it. Unless your dealership is really bad I'd say it wouldn't void anything

@ebensteven8138 4 месяца назад

I had a quick question about something that I haven't seen covered yet about these trucks up north in Canada. Do they have the auto stop start function that shuts the engine down when fully stopped at a red light? I ask because there is a button in the US model to turn this function off but it seems to be absent on the same spot on the Canadian trucks. I am in the market for one of these trucks soon and have been doing some research and noticed this. A quick comment, video or short on this would be helpful sir, thanks
