2003 Altima Rear Wheel Seal

Don't know anything about a 2003 Altima, but every moving part of the drive system has some type of lubricant, especially wheels and axles. Even though an axle does not extend from wheel to wheel, here is an axle within the individual wheel. Get an independent opinion.

There'll be a stub axle with an inner and outer bearing, each packed with grease. And an inner grease seal.

the rear wheel-HUBS have sealed bearings in them,and they DO leak and then the bearings wear out.It happened on my 2003 Sentra.

Your Altima's wheel hub is probably a "replace the entire hub assembly" type like mine was,no pressing in new bearings and/or repacking the bearings.

Of course,it's more expensive that way.

wrong ....

Jim Yanik has the correct answer..
