Expert Answers about Nissan Armada


  • Can the Gen-Y 10 Adjustable 2-Ball Mount Be Used for Towing and a Hitch Carrier
  • The Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount part # 325-GH-325 can be used for both towing and hitch mounted accessories at the same time. That said, the ball mount would likely need to be in one of the bottom two holes with the hitch mounted accessory in the top. In regards to weight, it has a very high 1,500 lb rating so as long as the tongue weight of the trailer and weight of the hitch mounted accessory are below this you will be fine. It's built like a tank so you should not have any concerns...

  • Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2019 Nissan Armada
  • The only suspension enhancement option for a 2019 Nissan Armada is the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4150. That said, these airbags are only for models without factory auto-leveling suspension. If you have factory auto-leveling suspension then the only thing that will help with tongue weight is a weight distribution system. I recommend the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System w/ 4-Point Sway Control part # EQ37100ET. It is possible to rearrange items on the trailer to...

  • Recommended Brake Controller and Wiring Harness Location for a 2018 Nissan Armada
  • I recommend installing the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR on your 2018 Nissan Armada because it offers both a user-control mode and a proportional mode for varying towing applications plus it installs in such a way that only the control knob will be visible. This combination gives you a great brake controller and a clean looking installation that won't get in the way. The user-control mode is equivalent to a time-delay controller where it brakes at a preset strength...

  • 2019 Nissan Armada Tow Mirror Recommendation

  • Is the Airaid AR523-284 a Cold Open Air or Closed Air Intake System
  • The Airaid # AR523-284 you were looking at for your 2013 Nissan Armada is actually an open air system, because the unit is not fully encased. The main advantage that the open box systems have over the enclosed box system is that open systems offer the maximum amount of airflow. The enclosed box systems will still have plenty of air flow, just not as much as an open box system. The closed air systems will look like the picture I have linked to this page for your convenience. Another main...

  • Do I need to Switch Hubs to Change from 8 inch 4 Lug Wheels to 12 inch Wheels
  • We have several 12 inch wheels and wheel and tire combos for 4 on 4 hubs. I have added a link to all of them below. You should not need to change hubs, as long as they are 4 on 4 inch. Measure from the center of one stud across or caddy corner to the next stud and make sure it is 4 inches. I have included a link on how to measure for bolt pattern below. The biggest thing to check is to make sure you have the clearance to add a taller wheel and tire. Make sure there is plenty of space to...

  • Where To Install A Transmission Cooler On A 2009 Saturn Vue
  • The transmission cooler should be installed in front of the air conditioner condenser for maximum efficiency. The inlet line on the transmission cooler should be connected to the oil return line coming out of the radiator. The line coming out of the transmission cooler will be connected to the inlet line going into the vehicles transmission. In my experience with other transmission cooler installations the amount of fluid lost is usually less than a pint. Also when installing the cooler...

  • Can Side View Cameras of Furrion Vision S Wireless Always Stay on
  • So long as you wire the side view cameras to the running light circuit, they will stay on continuously when using the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Observation Camera System w/ Side Marker Light Cameras # FCE48TASL-05. When wired this way, the side cameras of the Vision S # FCE48TASL-05 won't just come on when the turn signals come on, and the monitor even has a tri-view display option so you can see both on the sides and behind you.

  • How to Carry a Dirt Bike and Mountain Bike on 2017 Nissan Armada
  • You can carry a dirt bike and mountain bike with your 2017 Nissan Armada, though there isn't a single carrier for both options at the same time. In order to do so you will need a roof rack, roof bike rack and dirt bike carrier such as the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier # e98873. Then, for a roof rack, so long as you have the factory raised side rails I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack - Aero Crossbars - Raised, Factory Side Rails # MPG216. This is a budget-friendly but secure and...

  • Why Does Auto-Leveling System on 2018 Nissan Armada Need to be Disabled to Use Equal-i-zer System
  • I would be happy to help you figure out how to setup an Equal-i-zer weight distribution (WD) on your 2018 Nissan Armada towing your Jay Flight 26BH. Equal-i-zer states that auto-leveling systems should be disabled when using their WD systems because the auto-leveling feature can actually end up working against the WD system and change (likely decrease) the effects of the Equal-i-zer system. If you have aftermarket air bag suspension then they state to inflate the air bags to the desired...

  • Will the Replacement License Plate Light Kit for Westin Bumpers Fit a Factory Rear Bumper
  • The Replacement License Plate Light Kit for Westin Bumpers part # 00007153 is universal in fit. It's designed for any vehicle which has a Westin Diamondstep, Surestep or Perfect Match Rear Bumper. Therefore, if this is what you have then it will be an exact match. If you have a factory rear bumper then that is not what this kit is designed for but that's not to say you cannot retrofit this to make it work for you, I just wouldn't have any advice on that process. It looks like we have had...

  • Weight Distribution/Sway Control System for 1999 Featherlite 4926 20-Foot Enclosed Trailer
  • The 20-foot Featherlite trailer model 4926 uses two 3500-lb axles and it has a dry weight of 2900-lbs according to the Featherlite online guide. But the key to choosing a weight distribution/sway control (WD/SC) system is knowing the actual tongue weight (TW) of the trailer when it is loaded up for the road, not just the empty trailer's dry weight. We offer a handy scale # e99044 that makes measuring TW easy. Since Featherlite trailers use aluminum construction I suggest checking with...

  • Weight Distribution for 2008 Nissan Armada Towing 6,000 lb Boat
  • For your 2008 Nissan Armada that has the Curt hitch # 13188 installed the Fastway E2 weight distribution system part # FA92-00-0800 would be a great option. It has a tongue weight range that would work well with a trailer that weighs 6000 lbs and since it's a trunnion setup it will be better on ground clearance. Since your boat trailer has a pole tongue you would need a pole tongue adapter part # EQ95-01-5950 as well.
