• 2000 lb A-frame Jack that Cranks Faster than Lippert A-Frame Jack
• The etrailer Jack part # TJBB-2001-B has a 2,000 lb capacity and it would crank faster than what you currently have, but it is not an A-frame jack. I went out into our warehouse to determine how many cranks it would take to lift 1 inch and found that it takes 8 revolutions of the crank for the jack to raise 1 inch. Not all jacks have the same cranks per inch. Typically, the more cranks per inch the jack have, the more mechanical advantage it has over the lifting. But the length of the...

• What is the Least Visible Hitch Type Available for the Nissan Murano
• The hitches available for your 2004 Nissan Murano both have a cross tube that runs side to side behind the receiver on the hitch. This tube, either square or round will be visible no matter the choice. For the least visible style of hitch, I would normally choose a round tube style. This construction is less noticeable and blends better with the shadows under the car than the squared edges of the square tube construction hitches. My recommendation, for the least visible hitch in this case,...

• Exhaust Must be Lowered for Installation of the Curt # 13571 Trailer Hitch on a 2006 Nissan Murano S
• I spoke with the technical department at Curt Manufacturing and found that installation of the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, item # 13571, on the 2006 Nissan Murano S model requires lowering the exhaust on both sides of the vehicle, for installation of the hitch. You do not need to bend or manipulate the exhaust in any other way and when the install is complete you will return the exhaust to its factory position. We have a video review of a hitch install on a 2006 Murano for you to check...

• Checking Bolts Included With Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch For 2005 Nissan Murano
• The bolts that are included with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch, part # 75148 are M12 X 1.25 CL8.8 fasteners. The fasteners should fit in the weldnuts on the frame of your Murano. You may want to take a fastener to a local hardware store and compare the threads and size to make sure you have the right size. There may be corrosion you can't see on the threads. Try using a penetrant like PB Blaster and spray the threads, then let it sit overnight. Then spray again the next day...

• Hitch Recommendation for a 2009 Nissan Murano with Aero Kit Bumper
• I recommend the etrailer hitch # e65AR for your 2009 Nissan Murano with Aero Kit Bumper. Both hitches have been determined by our manufactures to be fits for all models of the Murano, I have linked the page with them for your convenience.

To tow you will also need a ball mount and a ball, these will be dependent on the trailer you...

• Troubleshooting Trailer Wiring Harness Where Both Blinkers Flash with Either Blinker On
• First thing you should do at this point is test the 4-way of the wiring harness with a circuit tester part # PTW2993 for voltage on all of the right pins when the taillight signals are being applied. Just like in the video I attached. If you see voltage on both blinker pins when either blinker is applied then the problem is the harness. If not then the problem is a short on the trailer's wiring between the two stop/turn circuits. Most likely exposed wire or corrosion between the wires...

• Roof Rack and Assisted Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2012 Nissan Murano with Raised Rails
• The Thule Hullavator part # TH898 that you referenced is a great assisted kayak carrier that lets you load it at about waist level and then using the assisted gas struts easily push it up to the roof of the vehicle. You will need a set of crossbars for your 2012 Nissan Murano that has raised side rails for this to attach to. For that the Malone AirFlow2 part # MPG216 would be a great option confirmed as a fit for both your vehicle and the Hullavator.

• Comparing Trailer Wiring Harness Options for a 2014 Nissan Murano
• The trailer wiring harness options for a 2014 Nissan Murano all pretty much do the same thing and will work well for you. That said, I do prefer the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118653 as the converter box is designed a bit better. It's smaller so easier to mount, has a tab for screw attachment which helps with longevity, and the potting which holds the wires on the board inside is much more durable. In summary, we have better experience with the T-One compared to the T-Connector...

This carrier provides a clearance distance between the center of the hitch pin hole and the carrier upright bar of 13-1/2 inches, and it tilts for easier access to your rear cargo area.

• Recommended Trailer Hitch Wiring and Towing Accessories For 2009 Nissan Murano
• I can recommend a hitch, wiring, and additional accessories that you will need to complete your towing setup on your 2009 Nissan Murano, but all of our hitches and wiring are sold separately. The hitch you referred to, the etrailer # e65AR is a fit for your Murano. For wiring, you will need Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, part # 118653 to have a 4-way connector at the rear of your vehicle. If the trailer in question doesn't have brakes, you'd just need a simple adapter # 37185. If...

• Is it Possible to Haul a Kayak and Paddleboard Together on 2007 Nissan Murano?
• In order to transport a kayak and paddleboard, you'll need to have a roof rack. If your 2007 Nissan Murano has the factory-installed side rails on the roof, I recommend the Inno Aero, which includes the rack's feet, # INXS150, and crossbars, # INXB138-2. If your Murano has a naked roof, without side rails, I recommend using the Inno Custom Fit Kit, # INK312, feet, # INSUT, and crossbars, # INB137. With a roof rack installed, you can then haul your paddleboard with the Rhino-Rack SUP Pads...
