    Good morning to everyone! I am from Greece and I have a Tundra CrewMax 5.7! Unfortunately, in Greece it is difficult to find parts for the car! My N01 part in the diagram has broken and I can't find it! Can anyone help me?? Should I get a whole differential? Can someone find it for me?

    Welcome to the forum!!!!

    I think you're going to have a hard time finding that part based on what the diagram is saying at the bottom (under the exploded view of the part you are looking for)...

    'N01 This part is not supplied as an individual part because it is hard to assemble / disassemble due to the structure'

    Hopefully, someone here with a little more experience with the front diffs can chime in here and advise if there is an aftermarket part available or if you're looking at having to replace the whole assembly...

    When I’m looking at that diagram the only N01 I’m seeing is the mounting bracket, rubber mount, washers, etc. on the RH side. I’m thinking it might come as an assembly with number 41230 - follow the dashed line up and look over…

    If you can post photos of what is broken on your truck that would be helpful as well.

    And a Tundra in Greece! Now that thought is just too cool to me.

    Thank you for your answers, N01 is in the middle of the diagram and of course it does not exist as a spare part. I have been looking for it for months, I will soon show you a photo of the broken part. The only solution is to find someone who has bought an entire differential group and does not need this specific part. Otherwise, I will buy an entire front differential and send it to a workshop of yours to solve it and send me only the part. The shipping costs to get the differential to Greece are over 200 dollar

    This is the half part. The other half is inside the diff

    That looks like a full time 4x4 front diff shaft. Not an ADD shaft. It would possibly fit but then he could never disengage the front diff.

    I went through a similar ordeal with my 06 tundra. Luckily, it shares the same tiny diff as a tacoma and 4runner so parts were a little more plentiful. Ended up finding a 97 tacoma front diff and swapped the shaft into my front diff.

    It is a full time stub shaft since it's from a Land Cruiser and they don't have ADD, I deleted the post as I don't know if he wants to ditch the ADD.

    How cool. My wife always talks about her time in Greece as a child. They lived in Mykonos. Funny, we are having the rest of the family over today for a Greek dinner.
