Where the Nissan Frontier transfer case is listed
We found priced Nissan Frontier transfer case listings at 432 salvage yards across 47 states. Texas supplies the most, with 129 listings (8% of the total) from 29 yards.

Shipping usually costs less than that gap for smaller parts, so it can pay to buy out of state.

Market analysis
How much does a used Nissan Frontier transfer case cost?
Asking prices for a used Nissan Frontier transfer case are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 22% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $243.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, (4x4), ID 33100-9BT0A, lists at a $282 median, while (4x4), ID 33100-9BT0B commands $329, a 17% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2017 units carry the lowest median at $150, while 2025 tops the table at $307. Parts from 2005–2018 are interchangeable, so if the 2017 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 14 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Nissan Frontier sits 77% below the Ram 3500 ($1,005), 27% below the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($311), and 73% below the Jeep Wrangler ($847) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used transfer case: what to check
- Match the exact model code. Gear ratios differ across trims of the same truck.
- Ask whether fluid was inspected at removal; metallic fluid means walk away.
- Confirm electronic vs manual shift versions.
- Check the output shaft splines for wear before install.
