Expert Answers about Infiniti


  • How Can I Carry my Two E-Bikes with my 2017 Infinity QX50
  • I have a solution for you but there are no trunk mounted bike racks that can accommodate bikes of that weight for your 2017 Infinity QX50. For most E-Bikes the best solution is in a hitch mounted rack. Some of these offer much higher capacity than the trunk mount options. For instance one I really like is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes part # HLY74FR. This works with 2" hitches and can accommodate bike up to 80 lbs. each. With the frame hook design it...

  • 2018 Infiniti QX60 Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations
  • Using a trailer hitch to transport bikes is definitely the best way to go. Here are the parts I recommend for your 2018 Infiniti QX60: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e73AR - Kuat Piston Pro X Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # KU98VR The matte black finish on our trailer hitch provides a clean and subtle look while also helping to hide any scratches from road debris, and then the Piston Pro X is one of the easiest racks to use, and it's compatible with the vast majority of bikes on the market.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Infiniti QX60 for Bike Rack
  • The only hitch we offer currently (March 2016) for your 2015 Infiniti QX60 is the Curt part # C13126. This will work great with your bike rack once installed so I would recommend it for you. This hitch will require some minor fascia trimming though. It would only be visible from underneath the vehicle though. For more info on the install check out the install instructions link I attached. I also attached an install video.

  • Recommended Tire Chains for a 2019 Infiniti QX80 with 275/50-22 Tires
  • Yes, we do offer tire chains for a 2019 Infiniti QX80 with 275/50-22 tires. The Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains part # KON24FR are what I recommend. They install only on top the tire so you won't have any clearance issues. They are also easy to setup and come with a nice case to store them in.

  • Timbren Suspension Enhancement Kit Recommendation for 2013 Infiniti QX56
  • I checked with Timbren and the two kits they recommend for your 2013 Infiniti QX56 both work just fine with the Hydraulic Body Motion Control system your Infiniti has. For the front you will want the part # TFXF1004A and for the rear # TNRARM.

  • Roof Mount Cargo Box Recommendation for a 2008 Infiniti FX-35
  • The Yakima SkyBox 18, # Y07336, measures 92 inches long. Chances are that the box will either overhang the roof or make contact with the rear hatch or both on your 2008 Infiniti FX-35. If your crossbars are adjustable and you can move them forward, and then adjust the box to be more forward, it can probably clear the rear hatch but will most likely overhang in the front. What I recommend is a slightly smaller box, in terms of cubic feet. Take a look at the RocketBox Pro 14, # Y07192. This...

  • 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 to Transport Recumbent Bike While Towing R-Pod Camper
  • As you mentioned in your question, the Swagman XC-Extended Platform-Style 2 Recumbent Bike Rack # S64650-EXT is rated for use on a motorhome but not a towed trailer like your R-Pod. This is essentially because of the additional movement and bounce that a bike rack at the rear of a trailer will experience when compared to that of a motorhome. This movement is caused not only from the rear bumper on a trailer behind further back from the rear axle (this is also the case on a motorhome) but...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2009 Infiniti G37 Convertible
  • I have an option that does allow you to carry a bike rack with your 2009 Infinity G37, but since your vehicle is a convertible there are no trunk racks that will fit. Instead you would have to go with a hitch mounted bike rack. For that you would need to start with a hitch like the Curt part # C11493 which is a confirmed fit and would work well. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install...

  • Trailer Hitch and Ball Recommendation for 2005 Infiniti G35 Sedan
  • We do have the Curt hitch part # C11482 which you referenced that is a confirmed fit for your 2005 Infiniti G35. This would work great for towing a small trailer. For a ball mount you'd need the part # C45521, for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball part # A-80, and then for wiring part # C59496.

  • 2-Bike Trunk-Mount Rack Recommendation for 2005 Infinity FX35
  • The Thule OutWay 2-Bike Rack # TH45JV that you referenced is a great option for your car, and is actually one of my top recommendations since it is lightweight - about 18-lbs - and since it includes locks for both your bikes and for the rack itself. I also like it because it has a superior atachment attachment system. This trunk rack is perfect for carrying 2 bikes on your sedan, station wagon, or SUV. It attaches easily with 2 rubber-coated straps that let you raise your trunk or hatch...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2017 Infinity QX60 for Carrying Thule Hullavator
  • For your 2017 Infiniti QX60 with a naked roof the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK339 is a confirmed fit. This would work well with the Hullavator part # TH898 as well so it would be a great choice.

  • Rhino-Rack Kayak Carrier for 2 Kayaks for a 2015 Infiniti Q50
  • The Rhino-Rack universal kayak carrier # S512 by itself holds just 1 kayak but you can carry 2 with it by adding Expansion Arm for Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier Item # RRS512X. To carry the paddles I recommend Rhino-Rack Multipurpose Holders for Roof Rack Crossbars - Universal Mount - Qty 2 Item # RRRMPHU.

  • Equal-I-Zer or Curt Weight Distribution System Recommendation for 2014 Infiniti QX80
  • All weight distribution systems are going to create quite a bit of noise unfortunately. The amount of tension in the setups and the fact there is a lot of metal to metal friction in all of them under all the tension will create quite a bit of noise. The Equal-I-Zer systems like the part # EQ37100ET you referenced are somewhat noisy but you can quiet them down with the correct lube part # EQ91-00-4250 which helps to keep the noise down quite a bit. This kit would be the much better choice...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2014 Infiniti QX60 for Thule T2 Bike Rack
  • The differences between vehicles are great enough there isn't a one single hitch that would fit all of them. That is why we sell custom fit hitches for so many different vehicles. For your 2014 Infiniti QX60 we have the Curt part # C13126 which is a confirmed fit which would work great with the T2 Classic # TH69XT. This is a great bike rack that I recommend a lot for people because of how versatile and easy to use it is. Here are all of the different vehicles this hitch would fit: 2013...

  • Is The eTrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier Compatible With 34 Fishing Kayak?
  • Our etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier - Folding - Universal Mount Item # e98878 will work with a 34 inch wide fishing kayak! Our carrier will fit on mostly any crossbar you may have with a maximum crossbar dimension of 3-1/8" wide x 1-1/2" tall. Be aware that you need to have the carrier at last 24" apart and you cannot load more than 150lbs on our carrier. Luckily, our carrier comes with all the tie-downs you need! I've included a video of me using the carrier so check it out!

  • Longer Roof Cargo Box for 2017 Infiniti QX60 to Carry Longer Lacrosse Stick
  • You are going to have to install a roof rack from Infiniti on your 2017 QX60 part number 999R1RZ500 as none of our aftermarket rack manufacturers have a crossbar solution for your vehicle that has the roof rails. Once you have that installed we can easily help with a cargo box. I looked up the standard lengths for your son's long pole and it looks like the length range is between 52 and 72 inches. The SkyBox NX 16 part # Y95AV can fit skis up to 175 cm which is just under 69 inches so...

  • How To Lock the Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style
  • In order to lock the Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style part # S64650 you will need to use the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable for Swagman Bike Racks part # S64031. This kit comes with a locking hitch pin which not only goes through the shank of the bike rack but also through a cable which is used to lock the bikes. Unfortunately, there aren't upgraded wheel hoops for the Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style.

  • Recommended 5 Bike Rack to Carry Wide Variety of Bike Frame Sizes on 2 Inch Hitch
  • I recommend using the Thule Apex XT 5 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # TH9026XT, which will fit on your QX60's 2" hitch receiver and allow you to carry 5 bikes. I really like that this tilts away from the vehicle to allow you easy access to the cargo area of the vehicle, and also comes with locks for the rack and the bike. You will need bike frame adapter bars like the Swagman # 64005 for any children's bikes or bikes with aggressive step through frames like women's bikes...
