My 06 Frontier with the 4.0L V6 has the same water pump. Mine has 3 timing chains with the main one operating the water pump. The oil pump is inside in the upper oil pan area. That coolant pipe on the passenger's side is like mine which is anodized with a similar upper radiator hose from the pipe to the radiator. Mine is a 6 Speed Manual Trans and a similar looking transfer case. The xfer case motor is different on mine. Instead of a wrench/socket head xfer case drain plug, mine has a square hole which a 3/8" extension fits nicely. The rear differential is the same on my 06. It's a Dana 44 type differential. Fuel tank, canister, towing receiver, spare tire on mine are very similar to the "2025." Rear brakes, parking brake and rear ABS sensors look the same as the new one. Front diff is similar to the new truck and directly connected to the front wheels. No locks to disconnect or connect for 4WD operation. When I changed the two exhaust timing chain tensioners, the main timing chain's tensioner, the three chains, the water pump, the guides and the front timing cover's crank seal. The timing chain's tensioners had their plastic part worn down from the timing chain's bottom rubbing on the plastic cushion. So while I was in there, with close 100,000 miles on the vehicle, I decided to do the job now, to eliminate the problem later. The hardest part of the job was the cleaning of the Nissan 3Bond adhesive that holds the front and rear timing covers together. Overall I still have and really like my 06 Nissan Frontier. Of course, I also really like my 2020 RAV4! Thank you for this video.
