Expert Answers about Nissan Pathfinder


  • Will Thule Force XT XXL Cargo Box Fit the Factory Roof Rack on a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder
  • Fit of a cargo box can mean a couple of things. There is the fit of the box to the roof rack crossbars and there is the clearance fit with the rear hatch. The Thule Force XT XXL cargo box # TH6359B physically fits the factory crossbars on a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder. To determine if it will interfere with the rear hatch requires taking a measurement on the vehicle. First, if the factory bars can slide forward/backward then make sure the front crossbar is as far forward as it can go. Then...

  • Is a 10K Fastway e2 Round Bar Weight Distribution System Too Much for a 500 lb Tongue Weight
  • The weight distribution system capacity should be chosen based on the loaded tongue weight of the trailer and any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. The closer the system matches the actual tongue weight, the better the system will preform. In regards to the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution System, there is an 800 lb bar part # FA94-02-0899 which would likely be a much better option for you based on your tongue weight. That said, if you want to try and go through the setup procedure...

  • 4-Way Wiring Harness For 2016 Nissan Pathfinder
  • It will not as the part number you mentioned is just a replacement part for a harness for other Nissan vehicles. For a 4-way for your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder that does include the relays to activate the tow package you'd need a harness from Curt: - Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56281

  • Does Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller Come With Mounting Panel on 2015 Nissan Pathfinder
  • Like you mentioned, there is not a specific mounting panel for the 2015 Nissan Pathfinder for the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR. So there isn't a separate panel available that I can recommend for use, which means the best option for your Pathfinder is to use the universal panel that comes the brake controller. What you will need for your '15 Pathfinder with the Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR is the wiring harness, which is the Plug-and-Play...

  • Is 2013 Nissan Pathfinder Air Lift Kit Needed When Towing with a Reese Weight Distribution System
  • Correct, if you didn't connect the bars on the Reese Pro Round Bar Weight Distribution w Sway Control # RE94FR then that wouldn't help out with the leveling situation. The bars have a little bit of sway control built-in but their main function is the weight distribution side of things. Without the bars installed you're essentially using a really heavy ball mount. With a properly rated weight distribution system you shouldn't need the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs # AL63WQ on your 2013...

  • Will Thule Force Medium Cargo Box TH624 Clear Rear Hatch and Antenna on 2014 Nissan Pathfinder
  • There is one simple measurement needed to determine if the Thule Force Medium Cargo Box # TH6356B will clear your roof-mounted antenna and allow full rear hatch opening without interference. Move your front roof crossbar as far forward as it will go and then measure from its center to the rear seam where the roof and hatch meet. If this distance is at least 41-7/8-inches then the box will clear the opened rear hatch. The antenna may have to me removed when using the cargo box, or you may...

  • Where Do Blue Relays of Tekonsha Trailer Wiring Harness # 118670 Install on 2019 Nissan Pathfinder
  • I attached an install video link that shows the # 118670 installing in a 2019 Nissan Pathfinder just like yours. Two of the blue relays and the brown relay install in the rear cargo area under some access panels. Fast forward to the 7 minute mark to see more on this. The other two relays install in a panel under the hood on the driver side which you can see at the 11:30 mark of the video.

  • Will the Silent Act Hitch Pin # SHP2082 Fit My Curt 4 Bike Rack?
  • While the Silent Act Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin # SHP2082 will not work with the Curt 4 Bike Rack # C18030 while mounted on the etrailer Hitch Receiver # E98908, we do have an option that will work for you. For that route, I recommend the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock # SR0901. We have tested this hitch pin specifically on the Curt 4, and it will work great with your hitch.

  • Can Rooftop Tent Mount on Cargo Basket?
  • It depends on the tent; most rooftop tents, such as the Yakima SkyRise HD # Y07436, mount to crossbars and not cargo baskets such as your Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07138-08. Additionally, your roof basket has the 180 lb cargo limit but you do need to go by whatever capacity is lower, your vehicle's roof or the basket, despite whatever capacity a roof tent may have.

  • Determining If Coil SumoSprings Will Fit 2014 Infiniti QX60
  • I may have an option for you, but at this time there is no rear suspension enhancement confirmed to fit your 2014 Infiniti QX60, and even though it is similar to a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder the suspension enhancement for options like the Firestone # F4118 you were looking at is not confirmed to fit. Instead there are universal options like the Coil SumoSprings # CSS-1094 which fit in-between the middle coils of your rear coil springs and give your suspension additional support to prevent...

  • Does Malone SeaWing Kayak Carrier and Load Assist Fit 2019 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The Malone SeaWing Kayak Carrier and Load Assist # MPG113MD you referenced is designed to fit round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars. So if your 2019 Nissan Pathfinder has the factory roof rack and the bars are at least 24" apart it should work. However, if your Pathfinder only has the rails that run front to back you will need cross bars so the SeaWing can attach. I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG217. It's very sturdy rack that's extremely easy to install....

  • How To Use 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket On 2018 Nissan Pathfinder
  • In order to use the 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket part # HM40975 on a 2018 Nissan Pathfinder you'll also need the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118273. The trailer connector would simply need to be swapped but you cannot purchase the kit without it.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness For a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT67GR is currently the only receiver I see that is a confirmed to fit your 2022 Nissan Pathfinder. This will require you to trim a section of your rear fascia for the receiver. I do not see that there is any way to build a receiver for your Pathfinder that will not require trimming of the fascia due to the spare tire being up next to the fascia. You would need to have a several inch gap between the fascia and spare tire to have the receiver...

  • Best Trailer Hitch for 2019 Nissan Pathfinder
  • Hands down the best trailer hitch for your 2019 Nissan Pathfinder is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76031 over the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13309 because it has the better clearances as well as the easier installation. The Draw-Tite hitch has better ground clearance than the Curt, has better bumper clearance, and does not require either lowering the spare tire to install or trimming the fascia under the bumper, which are both steps necessary to install the Curt hitch. I have added links to...

  • Trailer Brake Controller and Suspension Enhancement For Towing With a 2015 Nissan Pathfinder
  • While I can help you with all the parts you will need you will need to contact your dealer to determine the exact towing capacity on your 2015 Nissan Pathfinder. They will have to look up the build information on your Pathfinder to determine what all parts were installed from the factory to increase towing capacity on your specific vehicle. For a brake controller I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR which you will be able to connect with the Plug and Play...

  • Is Adding a Set Screw Needed to Prevent Hitch Ball Nut from Backing Off
  • If done properly it's probably safe, but realistically if you tighten the nut of the hitch ball to the recommended torque spec you wouldn't have to worry about the nut backing off. Or you could use some thread locker if you really wanted to be cautious.

  • Fit of Tekonsha # 118273 Trailer Wiring Harness on 2014 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The # 118273 from Tekonsha will indeed fit your 2014 Pathfinder regardless of whether it has the factory tow package. Installation is pretty simple, as you can see by looking over the instructions I've provided for you. If the trailer you're planning on towing has electric brakes, and you'd like them to actuate, you'll also need a brake controller. I prefer a proportional controller for safer, more predictable braking. You can't go wrong with the Tekonsha Prodigy P2, part # 90885. You'll...

  • 2013 Nissan Pathfinder Already has Blue Relays in Relay Box Under the Hood
  • Your 2013 Nissan Pathfinder might have the factory tow package. Wiring harness # 118670 is for models that don't have the factory tow package and would need those relays and jumper harness included with the harness. If your 4-Way is working then you can just keep the unused relays as spares!

  • Will Trailer Hitch From 2016 Nissan Pathfinder Fit a 2018 Nissan Murano?
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13126 you purchased for your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder is not a fit for a 2018 Murano. That hitch is only a fit for 2013 - 2013 Infiniti JX35, 2013 - 2016 Nissan Pathfinder, and 2014 - 2019 Infiniti QX60. For a 2018 Nissan Murano I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75952. This is an easy installation and a very strong trailer hitch. I've attached a video of this installation...
