  • Upgrading Existing 4-Pole Trailer Connector on 2017 Nissan Pathfinder to 7-Way
  • The Tekonsha # 118273 7-way trailer connector uses the same jumper harness and relays that are used by the Curt # C56281 so you can simply leave those in place and install the 7-way and harness provided with the # 118273 and plug it into the factory connectors you described. That harness will provide the trailer lighting, a 12V feed and transmit the brake controller output from the connector under the dash, but you'll need to install a brake controller to actually actuate the trailer brakes. For...

  • Recommended Hitch Cargo Carrier for Class I Hitch on 2013 Nissan Altima
  • Yes. You can use something like the 20 X 47 Reese Carrier # 63155, which is compatible with 1-1/4" hitches. This carrier weighs around 44-lbs so it would allow you to carry roughly 156-lbs of cargo on the back of your 2013 Nissan Altima, but I do recommend confirming the tongue weight capacity in your owner's manual to be sure it is 200-lbs. While I think your best choice is above, you could also look at the other 2 compatible carriers, the # C18145 and the # C18110. These are both made...

  • Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and Trailer Brakes Controller in 2006 Nissan Titan
  • In your 2006 Nissan Titan that did not come with a factory 7-way wiring set-up you can install a trailer brake controller like the popular Prodigy P2 # 90885 using the quick-connect wiring adapter # 3050-P that plugs in between the controller and the port that is under your dash. The only other item you will need is the 7-way socket and relay kit # N40975. Please refer to the linked videos showing installations in a Nissan vehicle.

  • The Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4150 will work with your OEM air suspension on your 2018 Nissan Armada as long as the air bags are not installed in the coil springs. The air bag kit has a load-leveling capacity of at least 500 pounds (at most 1,000 pounds). It has an adjustable air pressure of 5 psi to 35 psi. The air bags are made of a durable , elastic polyurethane. I attached an installation video link below.

  • Camper Tie Downs And Turnbuckles That Fit A 2010 Nissan Frontier
  • For your 2010 Nissan Frontier, I recommend the: -Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs - Bed Mount # HSAB. These are universal camper tie downs that will fit trucks with bed rails less than 5-1/2" wide, and include the front and back. To secure your camper to the tie downs, you're going to also need a set of turnbuckles like the: -Brophy Basic Turnbuckles w/ Hardware for Camper Tie-Downs # TDHP. Attached is a review video for you to check out as well.

  • Will The Tekonsha T-One Connect TK76FR Fit A 2022 Nissan Rogue
  • Yes, per the manufacturer the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK76FR is confirmed to fit your 2022 Nissan Rogue. There were changes between 2020 and 2022 but the harness connector for the # TK76FR is the same. If you haven't decided on a trailer hitch for your Rogue I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e93ZR. I like this trailer over the other hitches that we offer because of its matte black powder coated finish. It will help keep the scratches and scuffs you get from towing...

  • Are Relays Needed to Install Hopkins Trailer Connector Socket HM40975 on 2014 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The Hopkins 7-and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2014 Nissan Pathfinder and will provide both a 4-Way and 7-Way connector at the rear of your vehicle. Since you have the factory pigtail and the needed two connectors hanging behind the rear bumper, you will not need to install additional relays for the 7 and 4-Way connectors to be fully functional. The relays on the Pathfinder will only be needed if you are going from a factory...

  • Availability of Plug-in Trailer Wiring Harness without Factory Tow Package on 2014 Nissan Xterra
  • For a 2014 Nissan Xterra you can use wiring harness # C56225, which you have referenced. This is the correct harness for an Xterra that did not come with a factory 4-Way or 7-Way trailer connector. The relays will be needed for the activation of the trailer wiring. I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation and a link to the installation instructions.

  • Curt Hitch Receiver for Handicap Mobility Scooter on a 2016 Nissan Rogue
  • I would be happy to help you and I have a great hitch receiver for you. It is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13204. I recommend getting a class III hitch with the highest tongue rating possible for your carrier and scooter and this one is it. You will want to check with your vehicle's owners manual or the inside door sticker to see what your Nissan Rogue's maximum tongue weight is. The maximum tongue weight of the Curt hitch receiver is 525 lbs. This receiver has a 6/10 on difficulty...

  • Parts Needed to Add 7 Way Connector to 2019 Nissan Rogue
  • We do have the parts you're looking for and you will use your existing 4 flat to add a 7 way connector to your 2019 Nissan Rogue; I'm not aware of any grommets on the vehicle that would allow you to drop the harness to the outside of the vehicle other than out of the rear cargo hatch but you can work around this. For the 7-way connector I recommend using the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 12 Gauge Wires # ETBC7L. You can leave the 4 way plugged in and...

  • Do You Carry Tire Chains with Cam Locks for 215/65-15 Tires on My 2000 Nissan Frontier?
  • I have a great tire chain solution for you. Regrettably, we do not have any tire chains with cam locks that are confirmed to fit your 215/65-15 tires on your 2000 Nissan Frontier. However, with that being said, we do have a great option for a self-tensioning system that will give you considerable tension while installed on your tires. For that route, I recommend the Konig Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern # TH01594225. Apart from the comfort that comes with not having...

  • Padding Needed for Carrying Kayak with Load Extender
  • We do have a variety of options to help protect your kayak. These range from the foam blocks # MPG152 that you referenced to the linked page of crossbar pads like the Yakima part # Y07412 which are 20" long. If you can let me know what load extender you are using I can make more of a specific recommendation.

  • Yes, the Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs # HSSF will fit on your 2021 Nissan Titan XD as long as your external bed rails do not exceed 5-1/2", you don't have a drop in bed liner, plastic bed rails, double-walled beds, or side-step beds. You shouldn't need to remove your factory bed rails unless they are raised rails. You will also need the Brophy Basic Turnbuckles w/ Hardware for Camper Tie-Downs # TDHP to secure your camper to the truck bed.

  • Parts Needed to Wire Lighting Functions When Flat Towing a 1997 Nissan Pickup Truck
  • The Hopkins Vehicle Wiring Harness, # HM43505, is for the Nissan if it were towing a trailer and needed to power the trailer lights. Instead, there are a couple of different options for when you are towing the Nissan and need lights. Since you mentioned that you wanted to power the Nissan lights, you will want to use a diode kit, # RM-154. Installing this kit will put the turn signals and brake lights on the same bulb and the running lights will be on a separate bulb. If you want the turn...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2012 Nissan Frontier
  • While we do have the parts needed to hook up your 2012 Nissan Frontier to be flat towed, the drive shaft disconnects are not something we offer, and are beyond our purview. I know that some products allow 4WD vehicles to use a single drive shaft disconnect that is for use with either a 2WD or 4WD, but we just don't have that familiarity with those products so the best bet there is to ask whomever you are getting the disconnect from, as they should be able to easily tell you that in regards...

  • Does 2005 Nissan Armada Have a Brake Controller Connection Port Under Dashboard
  • Whether or not your 2005 Nissan Armada has a factory-installed 7-way socket at the rear bumper it will also have a brake controller connection port under the dash. This is usually found above the emergency brake but the connector may be tucked in and hard to spot. You can use a quick-connect wiring adapter # 3050-P to install a Tekonsha controller like their highly-rated Prodigy P3, part # 90195. If you do not have the factory 7-way you will also need a 7-way/relay kit # N40975.

  • 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...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness and Mounting Brackets for a 2016 Nissan Frontier
  • We do have a variety of trailer connectors and mounting brackets that you can use on your 2016 Nissan Frontier. If you need a 4-Way Flat connector then the Hopkins # HM43575 will work if you have the tow package. If you don't have the tow package then I recommend the Curt # C56225. You can mount either of these using the Tow Ready # 18144 with a no-drill bracket like part # 18140. I have attached some installation videos and the instructions for you to check out.

  • Relay Needed for Installing Aftermarket Tow Package on 2006 Nissan Pathfinder
  • For the relay, you will want to use the Curt Relay Kit for Nissan Aftermarket Tow Package # C57000. The blue relays included in the # C57000 kit activate the turn signals and the brown relay activates the 12-volt power circuit. You will need the relay for your 2006 Nissan Pathfinder if it did not come equipped with a factory tow package.
