Expert Answers about Nissan Pathfinder


  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2013 Nissan Pathfinder
  • We do offer several options in a 2-inch hitch for your 2013 Nissan Pathfinder and the one I suggest is the Draw-Tite # 76031 because of its slightly simpler installation. A video, installation help articles and written instructions are linked to show you the process. Tools required are listed in the instructions. For wiring you can use # HM40975 which provides both 4-pole flat and 7-way blade style connectors. A video is included for this item too. This will plug in to the round connector...

  • Is There a Replacement Air Spring for a Firestone 4118 Air Spring Kit on a 2020 Nissan Pathfinder
  • I was able to verify with the manufacturer that the correct replacement air spring for the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4118 on your 2020 Nissan pathfinder is air spring 6118. The bad news is that the replacement air springs are no longer available. While it is far from ideal, if you are needing a replacement air spring for the 4118 system, you'd have to get the entire # F4118 kit or find one second hand.

  • Trailer Hitch Cover Recommendations for a 2011 or 2012 Nissan Pathfinder
  • We have oodles of hitch covers. If you are looking for something specific, I have included a link to our hitch cover main page. There you will find all of the categories for hitch covers in different sizes and materials. We do have some Nissan logo covers but none that say Pathfinder. Take a look at the black and chrome cover # CR-690 that fits 1-1/4 or 2 inch trailer hitches. For trailer hitch covers like these, I recommend getting a looking hitch pin to deter theft of the cover. For...

  • Recommended Hitch Bike Rack For My 2017 Nissan Pathfinder
  • I have two hitch bike racks I recommend, depending on the bikes you will be carrying on your 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. My first recommendation is the Saris MHS Modular Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Tilting, part # SAR73MR. This hitch bike rack has a maximum weight limit of 60 lbs per bike. It is fender friendly, provided your front fender does not extend past the 2 o' clock position of your front wheel. My second recommendation is the The Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack for 2 Bikes...

  • Towing Mirrors for 2015 Nissan Pathfinder
  • We do not have any custom-fit towing mirrors for your 2015 Nissan Pathfinder but on the linked page you can see the universal-fit mirror sets we offer from CIPA and K-Source that will fit nicely on your Pathfinder. Out of the options I recommend the K-Source set # KS3990 because these include a dual lens design and have a ratcheting strap mounting system that holds the mirrors securely for less image "ghosting" while you drive. These install without tools as shown in the linked video.

  • Ball Mount with 6-Inches of Rise That Is Compatible with Swagman XCS Towing Bike Rack S64664
  • We can help you with an extra-long 2-inch ball mount that has the 5 to 6-inches of rise you need for your trailer and that will allow installation of the Swagman Traveler XCS towing bike rack # S64664. Curt 2-inch ball mount # C45100 offers 6-1/4-inches of rise and has 4-inches of available shank between the edge of the hitch pin hole and the reinforcing gusset so it should work great with the Swagman XCS. I went to our warehouse and confirmed this dimension, which is shown on the linked...

  • Tire And Wheel Recommendation For Trailer With 4.80x12 Tires On 4 on 4 Wheels
  • The 4.80 X 12 is the size of the tire and the 4 on 4 is the bolt pattern of the wheel. The bolt pattern means it is a 4 hole wheel and the distance from the center of one hole to the center of the hole directly across from it is 4 inches. Any wheel with a 4 on 4 inch bolt pattern and a large enough pilot hole diameter will fit your trailer. You will need to check the weight capacity of your axle and get the correct tire size that will be rated above the weight capacity of your axle. The...

  • Aero Roof Rack for 2018 Nissan Pathfinder
  • We do have roof racks for your 2018 Pathfinder that will work great on either a bare roof or a roof with front-to-back side rails. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex rack system because it offers excellent performance and very good value. This aerodynamic rack will be quieter than any other type thanks to its wing-like bars that cut through the wind better than other shapes. We have a version for both of the possible roof configurations on your Pathfinder. If your roof has front-to-back...

  • Locking Hitch Pin for Thule Apex TH9024 Bike Rack
  • The threaded portion that fits in the shank of the Thule Apex bike rack is typically not compatible with threaded locking pins from other manufacturers. We've received a few reports here and there stating that they will fit, but since Thule won't confirm this we cannot guarantee fit. It's safest to use the lock that was specifically designed for the rack, the # THSTL2. One really nice feature of the Thule lock, it can be re keyed to match the locks on other Thule accessories, if you have...

  • Can Convenience Link Tabs Be Added to Blue Ox Baseplates That Don't Have Them?
  • The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX1826 for a Nissan Pathfinder do not have the convenience link tabs as you mentioned. They cannot be added to the product but the manufacturer suggests installation in the manner shown in the attached photo. The manufacturer doesn't warranty any baseplates that have been customized in any way so they don't offer the tabs to weld in place.

  • Availability of Replacement Weight Distribution Shank in Different Size
  • Weight distribution systems like the Reese Strait-Line # RP66084 can be fitted with a new shank portion, such as the # RP63971, when a different amount of height rise or drop is needed for the hitched trailer to remain level with the ground - which is essential for good handling. It is also possible to use a different size shank to enable a weight distribution system used in a 2-inch hitch to be moved over to a vehicle that has a 2-1/2-inch hitch. In this case only the shank portion needs...

  • Is There a 3rd Row Black Cargo Area Mat to Match the U-Ace 3D Kagu Custom Floor Liners
  • My contact at U-Ace confirms that they do offer a matching cargo area mat in the black 3D Kagu finish. The cargo area mat part # is M1NS0581309. All of these mats feature three-layer construction consisting of a top layer of thermoplastic rubber, an inner layer of cross-linked polyethylene (which is waterproof, helps block transmission of noise and vibration, and which insulates from heat and cold) and a bottom layer of the patented MAXpider fibers that gently grip your Pathfinder carpet....

  • 7-Way Bracket Recommendation for Use with Trailer Wiring 118266 for 2011 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The trailer wiring harness part # 118266 that you referenced is a 7-way which bolts to a standard 7-way bracket like the part # 319-S7-61 which you referenced. This would be a good option but it will require drilling through the bracket to your rear bumper. The most popular option I would recommend is the part # PK12711U instead which has hole pre-drilled.
