- How to Install a Brake Controller and 7-Way Wiring Harness on a 2014 Nissan Murano
- In order to tow a 2014 Casita travel trailer with your 2014 Nissan Murano you are going to need a 4-way wiring harness, 4 to 7-way wiring harness, and a brake controller. For the 4-way harness I recommend using the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118653. This is a complete plug and play option that is a confirmed fit for you so long as you do not have the CrossCabriolet edition.
For the 4 to 7-way wiring harness I recommend the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller...

- The etrailer Jack part # TJBB-2001-B has a 2,000 lb capacity and it would crank faster than what you currently have, but it is not an A-frame jack.
I went out into our warehouse to determine how many cranks it would take to lift 1 inch and found that it takes 8 revolutions of the crank for the jack to raise 1 inch.
Not all jacks have the same cranks per inch. Typically, the more cranks per inch the jack have, the more mechanical advantage it has over the lifting. But the length of the...

- We can help you with both a hitch and hitch-mount bike rack for your 2014 Nissan Murano Platinum.
We offer 2-inch hitches for your vehicle and I suggest the etrailer # e65AR. This Class III hitch offers a substantial 400-lb tongue weight rating (tongue weight is the downward force on a hitch) that makes this an excellent choice for use with a hitch-mount bike carrier. This hitch also allows use of a hitch-mount cargo carrier if that is ever needed.
There are two basic types of hitch-mount...

- The hitches that are a fit for your 2007 Nissan Murano only have a 350 tongue weight capacity. The etrailer # e98874 weighs 58 pounds and would be a great carrier for you as long as the 58 pounds plus the weight of your motorcycle weighs less than the 350 pound tongue weight limit.
The better hitch choice is the Draw Tite par # 75148 which does not require a stabilizer strap like part # 18050 when carrying a non-supported load like the Curt hitch does.
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2017 Nissan Murano
- For your 2017 Nissan Murano I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75952. It and the Curt trailer hitch # C13205 install the same but I would not say that one is more hidden than the other. I recommend taking a look at the installation videos for each hitch which I have linked for you which will provide a good comparison.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2021 Nissan Murano for a Bike Rack
- I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e98907 for your 2021 Nissan Murano because it has a matte black finish that helps it blend in with the trim on your Murano and helps to hide any scratches that might occur from road debris hitting it.
Then for a bike rack I recommend checking out the Yakima EXO Swing Away 2-Bike Rack # Y92VR for a few reasons. The first is that the swing-away feature means you can gain complete access to your rear hatch area without removing your bikes, the...
view full answer... - Which Hitch Fits For 2021 Nissan Murano Platinum?
- I have a hitch option that does fit your 2021 Nissan Murano Platinum, but Stealth Hitches does not make a hitch for your vehicle.
The best option is the etrailer # e98907 because of the matte black finish that will blend in to the plastic trim on the bottom of your bumper the best. All of the hitches that fit your vehicle will mount below the bumper, but this coating will do the best to help make the hitch blend in as much as possible which you can see in the included install picture.

- For 3 bike, trunk mounted racks both Thule and Yakima do not recommend using the racks on your 2010 Nissan Murano.
Thule states that the carrier is not recommended because top straps should not be mounted directly to glass or plastic trim covering glass.
Yakima states the same but adds if it must be done you must limit the load to only two bikes.
You could install a hitch like the etrailer Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver, # e65AR, and add a bike rack like the SportRack Pathway 3 Bike...

- I checked with Thule and the Thule Gateway Pro Bike Rack part # TH88VR that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2015 Nissan Murano so it would work well for you.
I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.
If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your...

- For the interior lights there is usually a switch that will let you select what the light does including on with doors open, on with the button pushed only, or completely off. That would take care of that light. The dash lights are a different story. Short of pulling the fuse(s) related to the lights or disconnecting the battery there really isn't an easy way to shut them off.

- The Draw-Tite # 75952 hitch is manufactured by the parent company, Cequent Performance Products.
The Curt # C13205 has a warranty stipulation that requires a stabilizing strap like # 18050 be used for non-trailer loads (like bike racks and cargo carriers.) Not only is this an extra expense, but not all vehicles are well suited to using the strap. The strap is meant to hook onto the vehicle at the top of the liftgate or rear of a trunk lid. If the vehicle has a spoiler on top of the liftgate...

- Thule does not recommend the use of their 3 bike trunk racks on your 2011 Nissan Murano, so even though the # TH56BV would fit (since the # TH45JV is listed as a fit), I can't recommend you carry 3 bikes with this rack.
There is a trunk mounted bike rack that has been confirmed to fit your vehicle that can carry 3 bikes though. The Hollywood Rack Over the Top part # HRF2-3 has been confirmed to fit your vehicle so I would recommend it for you. I attached a review video for you to check...
view full answer... - Recommended Roof Rack And Bike Carrier For 2004 Nissan Murano With Naked Roof
- There are a couple of options for roof racks for your 2004 Murano. For a more aerodynamic roof rack I recommend the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack. This roof rack has 54-inch long Black aluminum crossbars that are designed to reduce wind noise. The rack has locks to secure it to your roof and it has a weight capacity of 165-lbs. To order this system you will need part # RRVA137B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK243.
For bike racks I recommend the Yakima HighRoad Bike Rack # Y02114. This...

- For your 2015 Nissan Murano you will need the Curt Hitch part # C13205 as it has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle. The # 13577 does not fit the 2015 models so there is no way to use it on your new Murano.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

view full answer... - Which Ball Mount is Best for a 2009 Nissan Murano with a 2 Inch Draw-Tite Hitch
- The smallest drop we have is a 2 inch drop like part # C45010. Letting the trailer ride slightly nose down is acceptable. Nose up or heavily nose down can pose problems. In this case, a 2 inch drop would be the best fit.

- Class-III hitches with the 2 inch receiver opening are the only hitches our suppliers offer for the 2011 Nissan Murano. We offer the Curt # 13577 and the etrrailer # e65AR. This are extremely similar hitches and neither have hidden crossbars. The main difference between the two is that the etrailer hitch has a matte black finish and the Curt hitch has a shiny black finish. I personally think that the matte black looks better on the Murano and is not as noticeable as the shiny black....
view full answer... - Coupler Lock Recommendations for etrailer Adjustable Channel Mount Coupler # CTA-280
- You have some options to use a lock on coupler # CTA-280. First, you could use a latch lock, # e98883. Its diameter is slightly less (1/4 inches) than the pin hole diameter for the latch (5/16 inches).
Another option is # ML389DAT which works with many styles of couplers and would be a great option for your coupler. I have linked videos of both locks for you.

- I checked with Thule and the Outway platform trunk rack is not a fit for your 2020 Nissan Murano so if you wanted a platform style rack you'd have to go with a hitch mounted option like the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider # HR200Z which would require a hitch installed on the vehicle as well like with the # e98907. The large spoiler on your vehicle does make it hard to fit the trunk racks but the hitch racks offer a more secure attachment that's easier to install and remove and doesn't contact...
