Expert Answers about Nissan Pickup


  • 1992 Nissan King Cab Truck Requires a Converter
  • Because your Nissan uses separate tail light circuits for the brake lights and turn signals, a tail light converter is needed. Typically, trailer brake lamps and turn signals share the same circuit, one bulb in the tail light preforms both functions. Because of this, a tail light converter is needed to combine the separate turn signal and brake light circuits on the truck. We offer a T-1 Connector, part # 118353 that is reasonably priced and very easy to install. The T-1 would install...

  • Availability of a Trailer Wiring Harness To Fit A 1986 Nissan D21 Hardbody Truck

  • Recommended Roof Rack Compatible with 1997 Nissan Extended Cab Pickup
  • The SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack SR1004 is no longer available as the manufacturer discontinued it. However, it was a confirmed fit for your 1997 Nissan Pickup with extended cab.

It will not mount to the rear vent windows. If you do not already have the roof rack, the...

  • Adapting Universal Hand Winch Right Angle Mounting Bracket
  • You might be able to adapt the mounting method on your trailer using mounting plate # DL24110. Check out the attached photo of the Universal Hand Winch Right Angle Mounting Bracket, part # DL24110. With the measurement between the mounting holes it may be difficult to be able to attach the mounting bracket without either welding it in place or by drilling through the trailer frame to accommodate the hole dimensions. At present we only offer one mounting bracket for winches, # DL24110.

  • Wiring a Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller in 90s 4x4 Nissan D21 Truck
  • We can definitely help you get a Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 wired into your truck. With that being said, installing the # 39510 will require a few things to get up and running. I wasn't sure if you had an existing 4 Flat or not, so I will be starting from scratch. If you do already have the 4 Flat installed, you can skip ahead a bit. I do have to mention that I included videos for all these products, but they will just be examples as they will not be for your vehicle. So lets start with...

  • Does Curt Trailer Wiring Harness 55353 Require a Connection to the Battery on a 1997 Nissan Pickup
  • Curt trailer wiring harness # C55353 is not a powered converter so it does not require a direct connection to the vehicle battery. It draws all the power it needs from the vehicle tail light wiring. I have included a link to the installation instructions. These types of plug and play harnesses take all of the guess work and wiring testing out of a hardwire installation so it should work much better for you.

  • Installing The Draw-Tite 75186 On A 1997 Nissan King Cab XE
  • In addition to reviewing the installation instructions, I contacted the manufacturer as well since sometimes they have installation notes. There are no drilling or other special installation steps that they were aware of that would apply when installing the # 75186 on the 1997 Nissan King Cab XE so you should be just fine.

  • Installation and Set-Up of Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller # 39510 in 1994 Nissan Pickup
  • The Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 that you referenced does require you to install it carefully to ensure it is level and oriented to the direction of travel. If you cannot get the bi-color light to go red then it could be due to damage, to the power being set at or near the minimum, or to a short on the brake circuit (the blue wire). You can inspect the trailer wiring to see if there is any evidence of worn or cracked insulation on the brake circuit; you will want...

  • Installation of Trailer Tail Light Kit # TL5RK
  • To answer the second question first, the lights are submersible meaning water can drain out. You will want to seal up the electrical connections as best as possible. Heat shrink tubing works well. You can also coat them in liquid electrical tape, # SWC50122. For the side marker lights you would splice the power wire into the running light wire using a quick splice connector. Because this is a wishbone harness (it has 2 running light wires, one for each side) you would really only need...
