Yes, a rear end that is a non locker can be swapped with a locker rear end on a 2005 Nissan Frontier. The process is relatively simple and can be done by a qualified mechanic. The following steps are involved in the swap:

Remove the old rear end.

Install the new rear end.

Bleed the brakes.

Drive the vehicle and test the new rear end.

The cost of the swap will vary depending on the type of locker and the labor rates in your area. However, it is generally a relatively affordable way to improve the off-road performance of your Nissan Frontier.

Here are some of the benefits of swapping a non locker rear end with a locker rear end:

Improved traction in slippery conditions.

Increased off-road capability.

Reduced wheel spin.

Improved handling.

If you are looking to improve the off-road performance of your Nissan Frontier, swapping a non locker rear end with a locker rear end is a great option.
