Re: True Trac installs

Where and how do I go about getting one of these. I have visited summit, detroit locker and west coast differentials and they dont show any thing for the Titan at all, or any prices.
If you dont mind me asking a couple questions, how much? will they make one for the front diff? and if I wait until next year will prices come down since they will not be a brand new item?

Thanks for the info guys and gals

Who from? Do you have to call the companies to get the price and order them?

Re: True Trac installs

There are plenty of other threads on where to buy. Lets keep this on topic folks and not clutter it with other stuff.

Re: True Trac installs

I'm going to be calling some places around town tomorrow. I imagine they'll all be in the $200'ish area like everyone else has been reporting. I'll post some of my quotes when I get a chance.

Kart, are you going to have a Nissan dealer do it or a big name place like Cottman, Aamco or Certified Transmission type of place?

I haven't seen anything in the yellow pages specific to differential repair/installs. Am I missing a key word here or what? Heh.

I've never had a special diff installed before so I'm kinda ignorant as to who to contact. lol

Re: True Trac installs

Anyone know whether having the trutrac installed by a dedicated four-wheel shop versus a Nissan service dept. will void the powertrain warranty? My new 06 Titan has only 1200 miles on it, but I want a trutrac installed, and I need advice on which route to take.

Re: True Trac installs

I would DIY in the driveway before taking it to the dealer (will the dealer even do it?). My preference would be a 4x4 shop that has installed them previously. My understanding is that the tool and method of carrier bearing adjustment is very similar to Dodge rear axles, employing a threaded bearing adjuster as opposed to the typical Dana 44 shims.

Re: True Trac installs

In the past I usually used 4wd shops for diff work but also a few specialized diff and axel shops but that was when I lived in another state.

I am going to ask the dealer just to get an idea, if I dont use them I will go to a guy around here that does work for some race teams.

Re: True Trac installs

From what I've read on this forum, the typical dealer experience with Titan rear axles will be limited to unbolting & replacing entire rear axle assemblies. I would look for somebody that has installed a bunch of Tru Tracs.

Re: True Trac installs

I used a dedicated 4wd shop that has been doing drivtrain work for 25 years...i paid $200 on a earlier quote of $150...but i padded itfor the double install fiasco,,,,

He says nobody should charge more than $200 labor

andi trust a guy who has installed over 300 tru-tracs and 1000 detroit lockers...
