I got the cotter pins from them for free. I didn't remove the anxles or anything. I used a super small and thin flat head screwdriver to apply the grease and fit it and push it into the splines since i didn't have anything small and thin enough to apply it. It worked!
If you just used the stock nut and adjusting cap from Nissan, you may encounter the same issue down the road

But hey, an easy fix is an easy fix
