Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle year, model, transmission, and front left position before installation. This part is listed for 2013 Nissan Altima with manual transmission and for 2007-2012 Nissan Altima in the front left position. Confirm spline count, axle length, and axle nut specifications against the original component before assembly.

ABS tone ring is not included. The manufacturer notes that ABS axles fit non-ABS applications unless otherwise noted, so confirm the vehicle’s original axle configuration before ordering. Use proper torque procedures and replace any worn related components during service as needed.
