Replacing a Nissan Titan Engine

The Nissan Titan is a full-sized truck model that has been in production since 2003. There are two generations of this truck, and it is built with a 5.6 Titan Motor. This short buying guide can help you narrow down your searches while looking for affordable complete engines for the Nissan Titan on eBay.

What do you need to know about first-generation Titan engines?

The first-generation Titan, also called A60, was built from 2003 to 2015. The powertrain is a 5.6-liter VK56DE V8 with a five-speed automatic Jatco 5R05 transmission.

A 2004 Nissan Titan engine and a 2005 Nissan Titan engine are both first-generation Titan engines. A complete engine labeled 'VK56DE for sale' is an appropriate replacement for those model years. A first-generation used Nissan Titan engine for sale may be found on eBay.

What do you need to know about the second-generation Titan?

The second-generation Titan, also called H61, has been manufactured since 2016. It has a 5.6-liter V8 7-speed automatic Jatco RE7R01B transmission powertrain. It was also available in a 5.0-liter Cummins turbodiesel V8 until 2019, but the engine has since gone out of production.

If you need a replacement engine for a second-generation Titan, look for a VK56 engine for sale. The full designation is 5.6-liter VK56VD V8. A new or used Nissan Titan 5.6 engine for sale is a good replacement for both generations. Though the engines have different designations, they are fundamentally the same.

F-Alpha platform

The Nissan Titan is built from the F-Alpha platform. It is a platform that is shared by other models. So, the Nissan Armada and the Nissan Frontier all share the 5.6-liter VK56 engine and powertrain. This means that engines that are labeled Nissan Armada or Frontier are suitable replacements for the Titan and other vehicles built on the F-Alpha platform.

The VK engine

The VK engine, the base for the Nissan Titan VK56DE and VK56VD engines, is a V8 piston engine with an aluminum overhead camshaft. A VK56 for sale may be found on eBay.
