Canope Member Registered: 01/04/03 Posts: 395 Loc: Pennsylvania	Why do the front hubs not have the Nissan emblem to match the rear? Thomas _________________________ Thomas "A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within."

Dunno, but I'd bet if you could, Nissan would have put them there...

I stuck a closed cap in the front just to check, and it seemed to fit fine. _________________________ -Jorge (pronounced hor-hey) Plethora of photos , videos , a Phlog , and a site with kittens .

The cut out ones are more than likely made that way to help let a little heat escape from the free hub....and so you can tell it's a 4x4 from a distance. _________________________ "Reality is a temporary illusion brought on by an absence of beer."

metsallica Member Registered: 07/04/03 Posts: 19 Loc: Madison	I am admiring a 2003 Supercharged in a mall parking lot, when my girlfirends says..."your's is better, this one doesn't even say Nissan on the front wheels it says Automatic." Anyways, the reason there is no emblem is in the case you have a 4x4 with manual hubs, you'd have to get out of your car, stick your hand through the hub covers, switch the hubs from free to lock and then be able to engage into 4x4 mode. I guess Nissan decided to leave it as the standard set and let everyone know you have a 4x4 with automatic free-locking hubs. _________________________ "Ahh, Beer!
