WTB Automatic Locking Hubs - 05/10/14 02:01 PM

I am looking for automatic locking hubs for a 2001 Xterra. They do not seem to be on the market anywhere I have looked, not sure why?

You can get them from a JY, or, new from the dealer, or, from someone who replaced theirs with manual hubs.

TJ,

Thanks for the reply. I tried many dealers and none carry this part. Looks like it has been discontinued, I wonder why? I tried a few junk yards and ebay and had no luck.
Below is the message from most dealer sites.

[40560] HUB ASSY-FREE RUNNING
"This part number is no longer available from Nissan North America nation-wide. It is still possible that one or more dealers have it in stock. Please contact us if you have questions."

Did you contact courtesy nissan with questions? They might be able to see which dealers DO have it in stock.

Yes, I did call courtesy Nissan. I was told this part was discontinued about 2 years ago. The person I spoke with could not provide any information in regards to why it was discontinued or who may carry it.
