silverton Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Yes, those should be the right spline count for your truck. those are Nissan OEM hubs and are said to be the strongest of all hubs available for our trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trogdor636 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Anytime my local Pick n Pull has a newer-ish Hardbody added to the inventory finder, I'm looking for those. Nice find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackspawn Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 Wow, I still can't believe I found those. I was bored that day and decided to spend a couple of hours playing in the junkyard and slipped up on a goldmine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimGreg Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 (edited) Do you mean this? Its two pieces together. i took everything off all the way to the front wheel bearing. Looking at the second pic in your first post you got everything. The part in this pic is the bearing retainer ring. When you go to swap the new ones on, remove the outer, pull the snap ring off the stub shaft and pull everything that will slide off freely (if you need a tool to remove it, leave it alone). Remove the part that fits on the stub shaft from the new hubs and slide it on, reinstall the snap ring, then bolt the new outer on and you are set. Edit:Just reread what you got it from, if it was a V6 Hardbody it will fit, if it was a 4cyl they will not.

Not saying that you're wrong, but I can't find anything that saids there are two different factory manual hubs for the 4 cylinder and one for the 6 cylinder engine..

blackspawn Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) Also I counted the splines on the hub and its (28), THE MAGIC NUMBER!!!! http://npora.ipbhost...showtopic=25662 I'm good to go! Edited July 18, 2011 by blackspawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimGreg Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 IIRC the reason the 4cyl didn't change was because they used the R180 diff up front and didn't make any changes to it. The V6 had a change to the 28 spline at the same time they switched to a different diff side mount on the drive axles. I'll have to do some digging to refind my info source, as it was something I came across about 10 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesRich Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I have a set that I pulled off of a 95 4 cyl. I didn't count the splines but measured them with calipers. Even the minor diameter is larger than the 1.094 OD of the 27 spline axles. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
