Expert Answers about Infiniti QX56


  • Tire Chain Compatibility on P305/45/22 Tires on 2004 Infiniti QX56
  • We do have tire chains that will fit your tire size P305/45/22, shown on the linked page, but since this large tire is not a stock size offered by Infiniti you will want to check your owner's manual for any guidance or restrictions regarding chain use. Note that none of the chains for your tire size offer rim protection. Some cars can use only special S-Class low-profile type chains; others can use chains only on one axle or the other; and some cars can use tire chains only when a specific...

  • Should Light of Reese POD Brake Controller be On When Trailer isn't Connected
  • When no trailer is connected the light on brake controller # 39523 will either be flashing or off. If it is green all the time with no trailer connected that indicates a short to ground. This normally occurs when there is corrosion on the pins or where the wires attach on the trailer connector. The Reese Pod brake controller should be connected as follows. White - Ground Black - 12 Volt Constant Power Red - Cold Side of the Brake Pedal Switch Blue - Trailer Brake feed to Trailer Brakes

  • Roof Rack System for Thule Hullavator Pro Load Assist Kayak Carrier
  • Both the Thule Hullavator # TH898 and the Yakima ShowDown # Y04081 are great kayak carriers but I prefer the Hullavator. Regardless of age, after a day of paddling the lift assist is awesome when it comes to helping you load your boat on top of your roof. You do need 4"-8" of overhang on your roof rack for this carrier to work. Your current roof rack on your 2010 Infiniti QX56 will not work. The only confirmed fit for your vehicle is a Thule Roof Rack system like Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars...

  • Recommended Battery Charge Line for 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Being Flat Towed
  • Your 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk does not require a charge line, but I always recommend it because it will maintain your battery without a risk of overcharging it. For the kit, I recommend the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25. I like using the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 for that function connection to be clean and easy from your tow vehicle. Let me know if you have further questions.

  • Recommendation Between the Prodigy P3 and Curt Spectrum Brake Controllers for a 2008 Infiniti QX56
  • Both the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 with the Adapter # 3050-P and the Curt Spectrum # C51170 with the Adapter # C51382 are excellent brake controllers and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend either one for you to use with your 2008 Infiniti QX56. Even though they are both electric brake controllers the P3 is more of a traditional controller while the Spectrum is a new style of brake controller. Ultimately I recommend going with the Spectrum over the P3 because you can install it just about...

  • Brake Controller Stopped Working with Brake Pedal on a 2010 Infiniti QX56
  • When there is no power to the red wire on a brake controller that plugs into a vehicle then the likely culprit is a blown stop light or CHMSL (center high mount stop light) fuse. If the brake controller is hardwired to the vehicle then check the wire to which the red brake controller wire is connected. If that wire has power but the brake controller red wire does not then you will need to make a new connection. If the wire does NOT have power then it goes back to a blown stop light or...

  • Yes, the Thule Sidekick Roof Mounted Cargo Carrier Box, item # TH78GC, will fit your factory roof rack as long as you have two cross bars, and they will adjust for the following measurements that are required for mounting the cargo box. The Sidekick needs 23-5/8 inch minimum spacing and 28 inch maximum spacing of cross bars front to back on your vehicle. The sidekick also requires 14-3/8 inch mounting width and 7-1/2 inches of rear clearance. There are four fixed holes for mounting u-bolts...

  • Availability of Dual Hitch Adapter that Works with Towing Trailer
  • Hey Mike, so we have hitch extenders that can be used when towing a trailer like the Malone part # MPG544 but the Roadmaster adapter you mentioned is not one that can be used when towing. With that said your trailer would need to weigh under 4,000 lbs to use this adapter and we don't have any similar options with a higher capacity.

  • Determining Bumper Clearance on 2012 Infiniti QX56 for Carpod Cargo Carrier
  • Some of the Carpod cargo carriers do sit very close to the end of the hitch receiver. To be sure that the cargo carrier will clear your 2012 Infiniti QX56's bumper, you will want to take a quick measurement on your vehicle. Using a yard stick or dowel rod held at the rear-most point of the bumper, you will want to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on the trailer hitch receiver to the dowel rod. This will let you know how many inches are needed for the carrier to clear the back...

  • Can I put a Thule Force Cargo Box on My 2011 Infiniti QX56
  • This Thule Force # TH6359B, would be mounted on the factory cross bars of your 2011 Infiniti QX56. If you have rails that run front to back without cross bars you would first need to get the Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401, 53" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420, as well as locks # TH450400. Once you have those installed you could install the roof box onto your QX56, and haul your luggage and baby strollers.

  • What is Weight Capacity of Thule T2 Pro With and Without Extension
  • The Thule T2 Pro part # TH83JV that you referenced has a 60 lb per bike capacity when used as a two bike rack but when using the add-on part # TH9036XT the overall bike rack is then limited to 160 lbs. This would mean for three bikes you'd be limited to 53 lbs per bike.

  • How to Get Trailer Level When Parked on Decline
  • Instead of using an uneven, unreliable piece of wood, I recommend checking out the Ultra-Fab Leveling Blocks # UF48-979051. These blocks are 8-1/4" wide x 8-1/4" long x 7/8" tall and you can position them under your jack and/or wheels to get your trailer level; there is also the option of using independent electric jacks, though that is an expensive upgrade and these blocks should work to get you level. I've added links to video reviews of these blocks for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Sway Control for Towing Aluminum Shadow 2 Horse Trailer
  • Based on your trailer, a weight distribution system won't work well. Because it is all aluminum you would still be protected by powder coat, but you would need to drill into the frame because it is enclosed. Based on the photo you attached, I really think you will be limited by space. Check your measurements against the trunnion bar lengths of around 30 inches. You will need brackets to fall around 25-27 inches in most cases. If you were to decide to use weight distribution, I recommend...

  • What Are The Minimum and Maximum Air Pressures Allowed In The Firestone Coil-Rite Air Springs F4150?
  • The Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4150 for your 2005 Infiniti QX56 require a minimum of 5psi to prevent damage to the bags. The maximum air pressure should not exceed 35psi or you risk damaging the bags. I find having an onboard compressor like the Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System # AL25980 will help you dial in your ride quality while you drive. This system includes a wireless remote that will allow you to adjust the suspension while you drive or from outside the vehicle...
