Finally got around to installing this. Here are a few pics and a short write up.
First, get your car in the air (duh). From the top of my head take these off:
Wheels
32 mm axle nut
Ball joint (or strut clevis bolts)
Hammer Axles from hub
Pry Axles from trans
Exhaust
12mm bolts and two nuts from around the outside of transfer case on drivers side
Wedge between middle plate and drivers side plate to separate it (ONLY REMOVE DRIVERS SIDE PLATE!!)
Pry front diff w/ bearing from the plate you just removed (KEEP the SHIMS!!!)
Take out plate
Slide out front diff with driveshaft tube
Pull Driveshaft tube out of front diff (has c clip will need hammer)
Use bearing puller to remove bearing from old diff
Press bearing onto modena
Make sure you have the right number of c clips inside the modena (don't double up, or not put one at all)
Install driveshaft tube onto Modena
RTV gasket onto tranfer plate
Install reverse of removal
Fill with regular gl-5 as recommended by nissan or whatever your favourite gear oil is
