The GU Nissan Patrol has a refined wheel bearing locking nut system, This kit will let you upgrade your GQ Patrol to the GU style, so no more worrying about your wheel falling off and flogging out bearings prematurely!

They now suit the earlier model GQ’s and Mavericks.

Designed to be used with a ½” ratchet, on the late model hub nuts which we can also supply to upgrade from the earlier models.

When changing or adjusting wheel bearings, simply jack the vehicle off the ground, and remove the hub and hub nut assembly, when you have replaced or repacked your bearings, place the Bearing Locking washer in first, then thread the large hub nut onto the stub axel, If you have installed new bearings rotate the wheel when tightening, if you don’t have a manual or torque wrench handy, tighten the nut until there is no play, when tight back of the nut no more than a quarter of a turn ensuring there is no play in the wheel or bearing, put the locking washer into position and install the two small screws.

After a couple of hundred km’s check to make sure the bearings are still tight by jacking the car up and testing for play.

We have the standard GQ socket to suit the earlier GQ’s in our store as well.
