This.^^ I want the factory parts but want to shop around for the best pricing.

I am doing a major tune up on my 2001 4x4 SE and I am having trouble figuring out what parts were used by Nissan on my truck. I want to do some shopping and find the best deals for the parts but I cannot find a list of original parts installed. Rotors/Pads, Oil/Fuel filters, etc. Anyone know where I can find this info? I know the dealers will have some nissan parts but I know that a lot of other parts are sourced from third party vendors. Any help would be appreciated. Mega4ce

I am on a stock setup so, I think I will just repack them if they check out.

Cool. Thanks for the advice.

Hey All, Hoping for some input as to what I should do. I am doing a front brake job and see that it is recommended to replace the outer wheel bearings. I at the same time am going to replace my driver axle, as the cv boot had been torn for a while, and it will be easier than replacing the cv boot. My questions are 1) Should I also at this time replace the inner wheel bearings? 2) What is the reasoning behind replacing the outer bearings when doing the brake job? Some info on the vehicle: 2001.1 4WD Pathfinder. 95k mi. Warn Manual Hubs. Also recommendations for any of the parts would be appreciated. So far, I am thinking of EBC Green or Yellow stuff pads, Beck Arnley Bearings. Still not sure on rotors and axle. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the step-by-step XPLORx4. I found a brand new axle for under $70 at my local auto parts store. I already have all of the tools needed and a 1/2 ratchet if I go that route. My only question is with Warn manual hubs on my truck do I just need to remove the cap or the entire unit to do the job?

Thanks for the suggestions. The more I look in to this I think I will go with the whole axle. Since I have no idea when the tear happened I would hate to replace the boot and then have to do the axle in a short time.

Hey Guys. I am looking for some advice from you all about what I should do in regards to my driver side torn CV boot. I bought my 2001.1 Pathy used with 90k miles on it. I have put about 3k on it in about 8 months and have a complete tear on my driver CV boot. I am not sure how long it has been like that. I live in CA and don't have to often worry about wet weather and off-roading is only a couple times a year. There also is no clicking coming from the axle, yet. I will need to do a front brake job sooner than later as well. So my questions are, should I replace just the CV boot or preemptively the entire axle? I have not done a CV boot before and it seems pretty labor intensive. I have the skills and tools to do so but I am bit wary to attempt it without help. I did the Warn hub upgrade already which is when I noticed the torn boot. Any insight/advice is welcome. Also, is this something that should be incorporated into the brake job and what do you recommend for parts on both the axle and cv boots?
