  • Why Does Trailer Hitch for 2018 Nissan Murano Have Higher Capacity Than Vehicle Does
  • Draw Tite and Curt/etrailer rate their hitches independently from one another which is why it's often that the hitches will be rated for different capacities. This is why the Draw Tite hitch part # 75952 is rated higher than your 2018 Nissan Murano. The overall towing capacity is always the lowest rated component in the setup as you are only as strong as your weakest component.

  • Will the Curt Echo Work w/ the Factory 7-Way on a Nissan Pathfinder?
  • So long as you have a smart phone capable of downloading Curt's app the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller item # C51180 will definitely work with your Pathfinder's 7-way harness. The 12v line on your Nissan's 7-way will function and charge your trailer's battery. This is the best option for wireless brake controllers. I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to set up the Curt Echo.

  • How Can I Carry 50lb Ebikes On The Roof Of My Car
  • Your ebikes weight is one of the limiting factors in carrying them on the roof of your vehicle. The Yakima ForkLift Roof Mounted Bike Carrier - Fork Mount, part # Y02098, has a weight limit of 40lbs. But if your roof rack has crossbars with a channel my recommendation would be the Inno Fork Lock Roof Bike Rack - Fork Mount - Channel Mounted - Aluminum, part # INXA391. It is a fork mounted rack that attaches to the channel of your crossbars. It has a weight limit of 50lbs and locks your...

  • Height of Curt Trailer Hitch C11349 For 2016 Nissan Sentra
  • Definitely can help you out here and the height from the ground to the top of the receiver on your 2016 Nissan Sentra will be approximately 10 inches for the Curt hitch you asked about, which is the following part number: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11349 The actual height should be very close to that once you install the hitch, but could vary based on a number of factors, like tire pressure or size, etc. So I do recommend installing the hitch first and measuring it and the coupler...

  • Dimensions of the Access Bed Mat # A25030179 and the BedRug Mat # BMN05CCD at Wheel Wells?
  • The length of the Access Custom Truck Bed Mat - Snap-In Bed Floor Cover # A25030179 at wheel wells of your 2019 Nissan Frontier is 33-1/4 inches. With the Access cover, I confirmed that there could be some trimming required at the corners of the mat with your sprayed-in liner. As far as the BedRug Custom Truck Bed Mat # BMN05CCD, I measured that in-house and it is 42 inches between the wheel wells and 56-3/4 inches at the widest section. With these two different fitments, I recommend the...

  • Does the Weight of a Weight Distribution System Count When Calculating Tongue Weight
  • When calculating tongue weight for a weight distribution system you would not add the weight of the system into the calculations. To choose a weight distribution system you will need to go by the total tongue weight of the set up. This is calculated by taking the tongue weight of the trailer, when loaded and ready to tow, and adding to that the weight of anything loaded behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I have included a link to the right to our help article on determining tongue...

  • What Is The Weight Of Curt Hitch Mounted Cargo Carriers # C18110 and # C18145
  • The tongue weight for any vehicle would take into account the weight of any hitch mounted carrier added to the weight of any cargo placed in or on the carrier. Both the cargo carriers, part # C18110 and part # C18145 weigh 30-lbs, so you just need to decide which style carrier best suits your needs. The # C18110 has an inside measurement of 47-11/16 inches long x 19-1/2 inches wide, and 2-3/4 inch side rail height. This carrier has an angled shank with a 3-3/4 inch rise, and would help...

  • Can Ultra-Fab Motorcycle Carrier # UF48-979033 Carry 450-lb Bike on 2002 Nissan Xterra
  • In order to be able to use the full 500-lb carrying capacity of the Ultra-Fab Motorcycle Carrier # UF48-979033 you will need to use it with a vehicle and hitch that both have a tongue weight (TW) capacity in excess of its 500-lb rating. If either the vehicle or the hitch have a TW rating below 550-lbs, then you'll start to lose carrying capacity. For example, if your Xterra owner's manual said the TW rating was 600-lbs but your installed hitch has a TW rating of 500-lbs, then the lower...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2015 Nissan Sentra SV
  • The best hitch for your 2015 Nissan Sentra SV is going to be the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11349. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Nissan with included hardware.

  • Can Trailer Hitch Installed on 2013 Nissan Altima Handle Mobility Scooter + Carrier Weighing 300 lbs
  • A Nissan Altima is compatible with a Class I hitch, which has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. The 300 lb chair and lift you mention would seriously overload the hitch, which would damage the hitch and result in the loss of the carrier and the power chair during transport, which would be bad. Your best bet would be to use a different tow vehicle, one that's capable of using a Class III hitch that has a tongue weight capacity of at least 350 lbs. A small trailer like part #...

  • Dimensions On Platform-Style Bike Carriers When Folded For Backup Camera Clearance On 2014 Xterra
  • I went to our warehouse and took some measurements for you. I have attached a photo of the Kuat Bike Rack, part # NV22G-NA22G that shows the dimensions you asked about. As you can see, there is very little room for between the arms and posts to allow the camera view to be clear. The Thule bike carrier, part # TH69TX has similar dimensions, and would certainly obstruct part if not all of the camera view. Due to the bit of flexibility in the arms there will be some variation in the measurements...

  • What is the Axle Weight Capacity of the Axle on a 2002 Jayco Qwest 8W

He said that your axle has a 2,200 lb weight capacity. Please note that you also need to check what the weight capacity is of your 2002 Jayco Qwest 8W as the weight capacity of the trailer and axle could be different. If you try contacting Jayco and have your information ready then they should be able to give you the exact GVWR...

  • Torque Spec Info for the Curt Hitch part # 13183
  • The torque specs for the Curt Hitch part # 13183 are listed in the installation instructions I attached to this page. Most likely they would be the same for whatever hitch you have, but since your hitch may not be a Curt hitch I can't say that with absolute certainty.

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier for a Nissan Juke and Class I Hitch
  • The ThuleEnclosed Cargo Carrier you reference, part # TH665C, is meant to be used with a Class II hitch, which typically has a 3500 lb towing and 300 lb tongue weight capacity. Your Nissan Juke uses a Class I hitch, that you referenced which has a 2,000 lbs towing and 200 lbs tongue weight capacity. The hitch and the frame members where it attaches to the vehicle lack the strength to safely use that carrier. I recommend using a Class I compatible carrier like the Curt 20x48 Cargo Carrier...

  • What is Amperage Rating of 12 Volt Charge Circuit of 2013 Nissan Xterra
  • To get an idea how much amperage the 12 volt accessory circuit of your 2013 Nissan Xterra can provide you would want to check to see what the fuse rating of that circuit is. That would be as much as that circuit could provide assuming the DC to DC charger you have is rated for up to that same amount as well. I looked up the owners manual of your vehicle and found the fuse/relay diagram and it looks to be a 30 amp circuit.
