Expert Answers about Infiniti QX70


  • Hitch, Bike Rack, and Ski Carrier for 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • For a hitch the Curt # 13554 is the best option for carrying a bike rack and ski carrier that fits your 2017 Infiniti QX70. Since you want ability to carry skis too you'd have to use the Thule Tram part # TH9033 which adapts Thule hanging bike racks to a ski carrier like the very popular Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR that I would also recommend. This can carry up to 4 bikes and has all of the nicer features on found on expensive bike racks like anti-sway cradles and anti-rattle...

  • Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a 2014 Infinity QX70
  • I checked with Thule and the Hullavator # TH898 would work well on your 2014 QX70 as long as you install an aftermarket roof rack on the vehicle. Even if you have factory crossbars you would need to install an aftermarket set of crossbars to install this rack. If you have side rails that run from front to back with or without crossbars you would want the part # MPG217 for the carrier to attach.

  • Hitch and Towing Capacity Recommendation for a 2014 Infinity QX70
  • When determining the overall towing capacity of a vehicle you must always go with the lowest rated component as the overall capacity since the setup is only as strong as it's weakest component. The Curt Hitch part # 13554 can handle 4,000 lbs of trailer, but your vehicle can only handle 2,000 so 2,000 lbs would be your overall capacity. If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or...

  • Can I Use a Weight Distribution System On a 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • I do have an option for you but they do not make a trailer hitch for your 2017 Infiniti QX70 that is designed to be used with a weight distribution system. The reason for this is the mounting points the trailer hitch will use on your vehicle are not durable enough to withstand the added stress of a weight distribution system. However, I have a combination of two products that will actually take the place of a weight distribution system and they are much easier to setup each time you need...

  • How To Prevent Rear End Sag While Towing with a 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • Thank you for your purchase and I am glad that you liked the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 and Tuson Asymmetric Sway Control System part # 335TSC-1000 I recommended. As mentioned, the Coil SumoSprings Custom Helper Springs are the only option for your vehicle as they do not offer any other suspension enhancements. We do sell these and you can install them yourself because they are super easy but in order to provide you with a part number I need you to take the...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2015 Infiniti QX70 with an ARK Performance Exhaust System
  • After reviewing the attached photo, It appears as if the 2015 Infiniti QX70 in question has the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13554 installed. Unfortunately, none of our aftermarket trailer hitch receiver manufacturers (Curt/Draw-Tite) are able to confirm fitment on vehicles with an aftermarket exhaust system.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Infiniti QX70S
  • For a trailer hitch for your 2016 Audi QX70 you will want the part # 13554. This hitch has been confirmed as a fit for both the all-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive models so it would work great for you. As of right now the only trailer wiring option I can recommend will be at your local Infiniti dealer. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2015 infiniti QX70 With Rear Wheel Drive
  • The trailer hitch we have that is designed to fit your 2015 QX70 is the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # 13554. This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening. A note form Curt states that all non-trailer loads - bike racks, cargo carriers and so forth - should be supported with stabilizing straps like part # 18050. Failure to properly support these loads will void your hitch warranty from CURT.

  • Ground Clearance of Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • You should not have any issues with the ground clearance with a trailer hitch for your 2017 Infiniti QX70. When we test-fit the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13554 on this same vehicle, it measured 13 inches from the top of the receiver to the ground, which is about 11 inches from the bottom of the receiver to the ground. That is a fairly standard height so unless you have quite a significant decline, there won't be an issue. Along with the hitch, if you plan on towing with your Infiniti...

  • Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • I recommend installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e75KR on your 2017 Infiniti QX70 because of the matte black finish as it does a great job at blending in with any black trim on your vehicle. If you don't already have a bike rack I highly recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack # BA22B which is the perfect combination of sleek look and ease of use. This is compatible with most bike racks on the market that don't have a front fender. Attached is an installation video of this...

  • Recommendation for Securing Hobie Mirage Oasis Kayak on 2015 Infiniti QX70
  • Your best option to safely load your Hobie Mirage Oasis Tandem Kayak onto the roof of your 2015 Infiniti QX70 may be to remove the factory crossbars and install a longer set. If your QX70 features factory raised side rails, I recommend the 50 inch Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG215. Because of the size/design and weight of your Hobie Mirage (over 100 pounds based on my research), a J-style carrier that will hold the kayak on its side won't be possible, so you will need longer crossbars...

  • Parts Needed to Add Brake Controller to 2015 Infiniti QX70
  • It sounds like you're pretty well set up! I'd recommend the Curt Echo wireless brake controller, part # C51180. The Echo communicates wirelessly with your smart phone, allowing you to control and monitor the performance of your trailer brakes from the vehicle cab whiteout needing extensive wiring and drilling any holes in your dashboard. All you'll need to do is install the # HM11140805 and plug the # HM47180 into it. Ground the white tire to the vehicle. The red wire would be extended...

  • Will Thule TH9058 Camber Bike Rack be Compatible with Curt 13554 Hitch on 2016 Infiniti QX70
  • The Curt # 13554 Class III hitch would work perfectly on your QX70. The Thule # TH9058 Camber 2 bike rack would be completely compatible with the hitch, and your vehicle. When installed, you should have about 13 inches of ground clearance which is enough that any sort of raised adapter isn't necessary. Actually, Thule doesn't recommend using an adapter, anyway. The rack includes an anti-rattle hitch bolt, but a lock is available separately as part # THSTL2. I've linked to an install video...

  • Trailer Hitch Fit Recommendation for 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • For your 2017 Infiniti QX70 the Draw Tite hitch part # 75778 that you referenced is a confirmed fit. This hitch does not also fit any Nissan vehicles. Also there aren't any hitches for the QX70 that also fit any Nissan vehicles.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2017 Infiniti QX70
  • There are a pair of trailer hitches that are a confirmed fit for your 2017 Infiniti QX70, the Curt # 13554 and Draw-Tite # 75778, which replaced the Hidden Hitch and is the same style. The truth of the matter is both of these hitches are going to look essentially the same on your Infiniti; if you check out the accompanying sketches from the installation instructions from both hitches you will be able to see that they will wind up in the same position. Since these hitches are the only fits...
