Hey.. I have a 02 frontier king cab 4cyl 5speed rwd...i have recently just wiped out my ring and pinion..any suggestions on where to get new ones? the manufacture wants $750.00 for a new set. and also does anyone know what rear is in this truck?

Your truck has a nissan C200 which should be a 3.90 ratio.
How did you wipe it out?
The rear ends are easy to swap so you might check in a junk yard.
I just put one in my 93 hardbody.
I paid $150 for mine but I know they will want more for a 02 fronty rear.

60k....i dont know why it failed either...i think from lifting the truck...i think my pinion angle was off...

did you get center support bearing fixed yet? How much? Mine went out last week. Glad it did not take the rear end with it. But it is still in my garage with driveshaft taken apart.

i paid i think $60 bucks from the dealer for it then pressed in on myself...

A friend of mine switched his nissan 200 out for a posi-traction rear. you may want to keep this in mind as an option if you're a dedicated off roader
