  • Parts Needed to Add Electric Drum Brakes to 3500-lb Lippert Axle
  • Thank you for providing the numbers you found on the plate on your 3500-lb Lippert axle. I could not cross-reference any of these but I can help you choose brakes and hub/drums since you know the axle is rated for 3500-lbs. You may care to review the linked article that covers all that is required for adding electric brakes to a trailer. Electric drum brakes for 3500-lb axles can be seen by clicking on the link provided. These brake assemblies are all the 10 x 2-1/4-inch size like left-...

  • Brake Controller Installation in 2005 Nissan Titan Without Factory Tow Package
  • On some of the Nissan Titans (primarily the XE versions) the factory brake controller plug, if present, does not have the 4 pins to match up with the adapter plug # 3050-P. In such cases it is necessary to splice together the vehicle wiring to the adapter. When there is no brake controller connection port under the dash you will just do a hardwired installation for your controller. For this we recommend using our # ETBC7 brake controller install kit along with a 4-pole harness. If the...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness for a 2017 Nissan Titan with No Tow Package
  • Even though your 2017 Nissan Titan doesn't have the tow package it should still have the standard round connector to install trailer wiring behind the rear bumper. Part # N40975 includes the 7-way and 4-way connector that plugs right into your truck, as well as the relays to installto activate the wiring. I've linked a video that shows the install on a 2010 Titan for you. The process is the same. With a trailer that large it's likely to hve brakes so you need a brake controller. I...

  • Will Brake Controller Work With Boat Trailer That Has No Brakes
  • In order for a brake controller to work with any trailer, the trailer must be equipped with working brakes. If you have an idler axle on your trailer you may want to consider adding brakes to be able to handle the heavy boat. My recommendation is to add electric over hydraulic disc brakes to your trailer. I have attached a helpful article you can check out. If you decide you want to install brakes on your trailer, let me know and I can make some recommendations that will work for you.

  • Recommended Reversible RV Fan Vent with Auto Lift, Rain Sensor and Wall Control
  • I have a solution for you, but I'm not aware of any RV fan/vent that actually has a wired wall control since these fans don't actually control any temperatures. However. the MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke # MA00-04500K does provide you with everything else you're seeking and comes with a handheld remote control that can be mounted on the wall with the included bracket, so you'll have a wall mounted control as well.

  • Availability of Custom Slip-On Towing Mirrors for a 2008 Nissan Titan
  • I do have an alternative option for you but unfortunately there have never been any custom fit towing mirrors for a Nissan Titan (even up to the newest models of the Titan). Since you had a bad experience with the type that use clips and straps to secure around your side mirrors I recommend using the Wheel Masters Eagle Vision Universal Extendable Towing Mirrors # WM6600-2 instead because they use hooks, straps, and a ratchet to secure to the door of your 2008 Nissan Titan. Attached are...

  • Mounting Bracket Compatible with Hopkins Plug-In 4-Pole Wiring Harness
  • The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Wiring Harness 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 41155 has a bracket designed perfectly for it: the Hopkins Fold-Over Mounting Bracket # HM48595. I attached a video that shows how to use it with your 4-pole flat harness. It just folds over the harness and can be screwed up into your bumper, hitch, etc. Some also use separate no-drill mounts like the #18136 long bracket or # 18140 short bracket. These are separate mounts for your bracket mount if you don't want...

  • What Parts Are Needed or Recommended for Putting a Fifth Wheel Hitch on a 2008 Nissan Titan 8FT Bed
  • For your 2008 Nissan Titan, I would suggest the Reese Semi-Custom Install kit, part # RP30035-405. This kit has all the hardware you will need to get the truck set up for a traditional bed rail fifth wheel hitch. I have added links to the instructions as well. Reese 16K Fifth Wheel, part # RP30051 is a fifth wheel equipped with a slider, which you will not need since you have a full 8 foot bed. Instead I would recommend Reese part # RP30047. It is the same as 30051 but without the sliders....

  • Parts Needed to Complete Towing Setup for 2018 Nissan Titan
  • We have just what you're looking for with the Hopkins Factory Style 7-Way and 4-Way Flat Vehicle End Trailer Connector # N40975, which will plug into the factory connector on the rear of your truck and comes with the towing relays that you need. For a hitch I recommend using the Curt # C13304 because the Curt hitches have a bit thicker powder coat that will resist nicks and scratches a bit better, which ultimately limits chances for your hitch rusting. If you also need a ball mount and...

  • Do I Need Lift Spacers with Firestone Ride-Rite Air Springs?
  • You will need to add spacers, since you're right on the edge of the requirements, but the # F2366 would not be the correct size. Firestone has put together a chart/list that you can use to help you determine what kind of spacer you need. Since the distance between your brackets is 6-1/2", you should use the Firestone Lift Spacer # F2356 according to the chart/list below. Distance between top and bottom bracket: 6-1/2" - 7-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2536 7-1/2" - 8-1/2" - Lift Spacer # F2366 8-1/2"...

  • Roof Rack and T-Load Bar for Hauling 2 Kayaks on a 2017 Nissan Titan
  • I recommend using a Rhino-Rack set up for your application. This includes the Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA150B-2, the 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and the DK Fit Kit # DK468 for the roof rack. Then you need the Rhino-Rack T-Load Hitch Mounted Load Assist and Support Bar # RTL002 which fits a 2" hitch. The parts above give you a full 2-bar roof rack which can be useful for multiple applications but if you are only wanting a 1-bar roof rack you need parts # RRVA150B, # RRRLKVAH, and # DK468H.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for 2007 Nissan Titan
  • I have a solution for you, but the CIPA # CM11401 is designed to fit on mirrors for Dodge Ram trucks. Unfortunately there are not a slip-on style mirror available for your Nissan Titan, so I instead recommend using the CIPA Universal Towing Mirrors # CM11980-2 which are a universal fit towing mirror that will fit on your 2007 truck. I've linked a review video of these mirrors on a newer Nissan Titan that I recommend having a look at.

  • Parts Needed to Install an Electric Trailer Brake Controller on a 2007 Nissan Titan or Frontier
  • If you have a 2007 Nissan Titan or Frontier and the truck has a factory installed 7-Way trailer connector all you will need is the brake controller and vehicle specific wiring harness. I recommend going with a proportional brake controller that engages the trailer brakes in proportion to how much the truck is breaking. This will reduce wear and tear on the truck and trailer and make for safer braking situations. For a proportional controller with wiring harness, I recommend the Tekonsha...
