Trans rebuilds are a lot more advanced than you think :-(. Some of them are easy like the older 5/6 speed gearboxes (or at least, easily learned) - the 5/6 speed A/T and M/T trannies usually fall into this group, but it's not exactly as DIYer friendly as you think at times. The reason is you need to know EXACTLY what you are doing, and if you find more parts bad like a broken flywheel on a lot of older vehicles the cost to rebuild can (and will) exceed the cost of a new one if the fault is severe. At that point it’s usually cheaper to move the TCM and replace the trans.
Depending on the fault, it may be easily fixable, especially if we can get an OBDII code to work with, especially the ones relating to the trans and powetrain. But yeah, on the newer 8+ speed A/T and DCTs? Those will never be DIYer friendly, if you can even get the parts for them! Some will always have a supply of aftermarket parts to rebuild/build them up but unless you have a R35 GTR or a Shelby Mustang, nobody is making aftermarket parts for them, because something like a Ford 10 speed in their F-series trucks might have some demand for parts but the demand will never be the same as it is for a kit to build up a R35 DCT to run on a beefed up engine that gets raced. It's a supply and demand issue.
Depending on the fault of the trans, it might be too far gone or need to replacing it if there's a lot of faulty parts. Unless you are absolutely certain it is rebuildable (such as if it's slipping due to a worn clutch pack) really evaluate it first before opening the kit. If it’s bad enough it needs something like a torque converter for an A/T (which is cheap) or the planetary gear is damaged (expen$ive) the cost to repair it might begin to exceed the cost of a used trans. If it gets to that point I would return the kit unopened. If it's a M/T, the good thing is the clutch plate can be accessed without opening up the trans so if you have a slipping M/T and it has 100k miles, I would seriously at least look into doing the clutch plates as a kit.

@nkanyisobhengu, first thing you want to do is give us a lot more information, because right now we are flying blind. We cannot give you any real help without it. What exact model year is your Frontier? What engine size is it? Is it AT or MT; is it a 4X4?
You are not telling us your exact vehicle model, nor are you telling us which gearbox you are actually looking at. At a bare minimum, we need to know if this is a manual or an automatic transmission, and what is wrong with it that makes you believe it even needs fixing in the first place. We also do not know your skill level, what tools you have available, or what kind of rebuild kit you are looking at to do the repair.
I for one am always willing to provide you with as much information as I can to empower you to fix your gearbox. Whether or not it will be successful entirely depends on your resources, skills and the specific details you provide us with.
I am a strong proponent of trying to fix anything, and I will never tell you that you can't or shouldn't at least try. I am all for giving it a shot. If it works, great for you. If it doesn't, you will be out a bit of time and money, but you will have learned a lot from the experience. Since you might need to replace the transmission anyway, you might as well give it a try. If it is already broken, you can't break it any further.
Information that we can help you with are things like this 2000 Nissan Frontier VG33E MT which is of course a manual transmission. For the 1998-2004 2.4L Frontier pickup trucks years Nissan used a FS5W71C transmission as well. For that you would use the 1998 2004 Nissan Fs5w71c Fs5r30a MT
For the automatic transmissions it will get a lot trickier. Here is the manual for the Nissan RL4R01A AT and the Nissan RE4R01A AT Nissan RL4R01A RE4R01A RE4R03A Repair Kits
Both are AT's used in that series Nissan Frontier. An automatic transmission by its nature is much more complex and difficult to work on than a manual transmission
Best of luck with your work and let us know how it works out for you.

If we had more I may be able to figure out what needs to be done given this is an older simpler unit but there’s not enough to go off of :/.
@nick brother fixer, that is why we always ask and get more details. You know I can't just leave it with "don't fix it" :-)
