  • Parts Needed to Equip 2013 Nissan Murano for Towing a 3000+ lb Boat
  • I've looked at the owner's manual, which confirms the 3500 lb towing capacity for your Murano. Can your vehicle tow that boat? Yes it can, but because you're getting close to maxing out the towing capacity of the vehicle, you'll want to proceed with some caution.. If you'll be towing the boat fairly often and if the route you're taking involves moderate to long distances and/or hilly terrain, I'd highly recommend going with a transmission cooler to help protect your transmission. A cooler...

  • Does the 2017 Nissan Murano Come Standard With a Trailer Wiring Harness
  • The Nissan Murano does not come standard with any type of wiring to allow you to provide lights on a towed trailer; if there is a "towing package" available for that model, that package would come with the trailer wiring harness and hitch installed. If you don't have the towing package and need to install a wiring harness on your 2017 Murano I recommend using the Tekonsha T-One # 118660 since we've found that the Tekonsha harnesses are a bit more reliable over time than others. If you...

This rack fits in 2" hitch receivers like the one on your 2015 Nissan Murano.

  • Is Stabilizing Strap Needed for Bike Rack on Curt C13205 Class III Hitch on 2017 Nissan Murano
  • As part of their warranty requirements, Curt used to specify that a stabilizing strap like # 18050 be used for all non-trailer loads. They no longer require this, but the requirement is still shown on the installation instructions for some of their hitches because they haven't been updated yet. You can purchase the # 18050 separately if you wish, as they're not included with the purchase of a bike rack but it's not necessary. Just be sure that the 350 lb tongue weight capacity of the Curt...

  • Parts to Add Trailer Brake Controller to 2017 Nissan Murano SL for Electric Trailer Brakes
