I did mine in the driveway alone with just the passenger side jacked up and a jack stand on my back in the dark in less than 2 hours did not remove lower control arm just removed the 2 bolts connecting the strut to hub assembly. When doing the passenger side just jack up the passenger side you will lose far less fluid. The only part I struggled with was the top bolt on the support bracket had to use a 12 mm wrench to break it loose a couple turns as I did not have a swivel at the time.

I just did this while replacing the struts on a 2001 Maxima 5 speed. It was ridiculously easy. Remove the three support bracket bolts (using 12mm wrench w/ 14mm cheater wrench for leverage) and yank. Reassembly was even easier. The vid was helpful tho. Thanks!

You blew by the part I needed to see. When you removed the axle, there is a ring type washer pressed about a foot from the inner spline. I tapped it off the old axle, but on the remanufactured axle it does Press fit on. The diameter is smaller and the washer doesn’t have any way to stay in place. What is it used for...?? Plus, I was hoping to replace the transaxle seal, but it looks almost impossible to access.

that right passenger side axle seems like the most difficult

Thanks 1A auto. This worked on my 2001 Nissan Maxima. Did it in the driveway with jacks and jack stands. Job was very difficult nonetheless. Took me 3.5 hrs without impact tools. Most of the bolts required extra pipe leverage. I couldn't get the 12mm axle bracket bolts out with extensions and sockets, but I was able to get them with a 12mm wrench.

I don't get why the lower control arm was loosened if it was just an axle replacement. All you had to do is loosen the 2 bolts at the lower end of the strut and the axle comes out rather easy...?

Like I said earlier, the axle comes out rather easy without removing the lower control arm bolts, only the 2 lower strut bolts. I've done this before on 5th gen maximas and they come out like that.

04's are known for timing chain failures caused by work the chain wearing out the plastic guide. my 2002 is at 285,000 miles only main complaint is the throwout bearing has gone out 3 times in 8 years, replaced the dual mass flywheel, and fix the rear main seal leak.. all the other small repairs I don't sweat.
