I recently aquired a 2005 Frontier 4x2 M226 Locked axle. Going to modify it to fit my 2007 Xterra S 4x4.
First of all, It should be geared at 3.13 from my research and door codes and will confirm tonight. Also the discussion on this matter is here.
I know it needs a new axle seal on the driver side, so I am sourcing parts to replace that. Link here
From there, here is my "To Do" list in prep for getting it installed.
