Has somebody been dumpster diving at the Nissan dealer?

Not me but it doesn't necessarily sound like a bad idea.

Woah! Didn't know you could just swap em out.....Anyone know how difficult that would be? Or how much it would cost?

That's the only difference as far as towing capacity from a regular titan right?

I think the easy part is swapping out the gears; the hard part is getting the ECU to recognize shift points; at least thats what I gathered, otherwise more gears would be out now.

Maybe you can select the new ratio to counteract the opposite ratio effect of bigger tires w/o messing up the shift points?

They are a factory ration so there should be something the dealer could do right?

would be nice to swap those in...

thats the gears that came with my 04 titan with the tow package. changing gears will change the speed of the rear wheels but the tranny rpms determin the shift points.
