Hey Guys I have a 2006 xterra with Auto and C200(8bolt cover) with 3.13 gears. If I wanted to swap for an o/r or Man trans rearend, one with lower gearing, is it a one for one swap or do I need to swap drive shafts also from the other unit. Also if I find an O/R with Locker how hard is it to hook up the electrics to activate the locker. any aftermarket kits for this.. Thanks
I don't know of any aftermarket kits to do that, but if you find an OR M226, just grab everything that's attached. Drive shaft, wiring harness, springs, shocks, etc. Also realize that if you do so I believe you'll need to upgrade the gearing in the front diff, too.
