  • Hopkins Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2019 Nissan Frontier

  • Is Angle Or clearance An Issue When Installing Winch On Front Of 2012 Nissan Frontier
  • The receiver opening for the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch # 65075 does sit below the front bumper. We haven't heard from any customers regarding the angle when they are using the hitch, but have had favorable reviews from customers. If you use a winch mounting plate like part # C31010, the winch will sit a little higher than the receiver opening and may not be an issue at all. we also have a winch mounting plate # BDW20011. The winches these are designed to work with are listed...

  • Running Lights do Not Work on Trailer
  • If the running lights do not work on your trailer it is very likely a bad ground; check your running lights to make sure your grounds are attached to bare metal surfaces and free of any paint, dirt or corrosion. It also could be corrosion on your trailer plug, as corrosion can interfere with the signals getting through the connectors so if it is present you are going to need to replace the plug with # HM38134. I have added a link below to a help article on trailer wiring for you to take...

  • Can The Towers Of The Yakima OverHaul HD Ladder Rack Be Reversed
  • The towers for the Yakima OverHaul HD Truck Bed Ladder Rack for Toyota/Nissan Utility Tracks # Y01151-5768 are angled inward already so swapping them to the opposite side would still only give you the same angle. If the towers were angled outwards then swapping them over would move them closer to the middle of the bed. While it hasn't been tested this style design could most likely be reversed, but you would be going against the manufacturer's intended design which would leave you liable...

  • Is Modification Required To Install A Carr C-Profile Light Mount On A 2023 Nissan Frontier Pro 4X
  • The Carr C-Profile Rota Light Mounting Bar # CARR210111 would require you to drill into the cab in order to mount so there would be modification required in order to install. If you don't have external rain gutters you would also need mounting bracket # CARR220061 in order to install the light mount. We don't currently have an installation video made for this product but I was able to find a few online that can give you a better idea of what this installation would entail.

  • Will Transmission Cooler Resolve Mixed Coolant Issues On A 2005 Nissan Frontier
  • Any of the transmission coolers we sell are designed more as a supplemental cooler that is meant to augment the factory transmission cooler portion of the radiator, not replace it entirely. If you are having the common problem with the radiator leaking causing the engine coolant contaminating the transmission fluid, your best bet would be to have the original radiator replaced. Nissan has extended the factory warranties on radiators on 2005-2010 Frontier, Pathfinder and Xterra models....

  • How Do I Know If I Have The Factory Tow Package Or Not
  • If you are unsure if you have the tow package or not, the only way to find out for sure would be to contact a dealership with your VIN. With certain vehicles we can sometimes check to see if certain electrical components are present, like a 7-way trailer plug, which would indicate that you do in fact have a tow package installed. That can be kind of hit-or-miss though, and the best way to find out for sure is to contact a dealership.

  • Photo Of Fit Kit Clamps Appears To Be Shorter Than Clamps Used On Video Of 2016 Nissan Frontier
  • I understand how the photos are a bit deceiving when looking at the brackets that are used to secure the roof rack to the door jambs. I have attached a couple of photos that show how the brackets look with the door on the vehicle open and also what it looks like when the door is closed. The clamps are actually shaped to fit the contour of the inside of the door jamb. The Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Vortex roof rack is a nice aerodynamic roof rack. The c-channels on the crossbars help reduce...

  • Measurements Needed To Determine Best Weight Distribution System For Towing
  • For a correct measurement you need to measure the distance from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on your vehicle. You then need to measure the height from the ground to the bottom of your coupler on your trailer when the trailer is level and on level ground. You want to keep the system as level as possible and can use an adjustable shank to be able to tow your trailer level. If your trailer weighs more than 50 percent of the weight of your towing vehicle it is always...

  • Options to Carry Extra Cargo on a Travel Trailer That Cannot Use a Tongue Mounted Carrier
  • The Stromberg Carlson Trailer Tray Cargo Carrier for A-Frame Trailers # CC-255 is a nice option but if you do not have the tongue weight room, I do have a couple potential options for you. But, we do not have a cargo rack designed to mount to your trailers bumper and place it above your spare tire. There is the Surco Spare-Tire-Mounted Cargo Basket # SPSJ4319 which will mount to your spare tire mount if it is attached to your trailer and not an aftermarket bumper or hitch mounted spare...

  • Can Crossbars Of Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack Be Cut For A Custom Fit
  • The crossbars that are included with the Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack, part # TH500XT are made of aluminum. You could cut the crossbars but you will void the warranty by doing so. You will need to use extreme caution to make sure you do not damage the tracks when you cut them. I also recommend using a fine file to deburr the edges after you cut them to the size you need.

  • Will Hopkins Vehicle Wiring Converter HM48915 Operate Turn Signals In-Phase with Vehicle
  • The Hopkins Vehicle Wiring Converter # HM48915 will do what you need; it will take the separate stop and turn signals from the individual lights on your 1999 Nissan Frontier and combine them onto one wire as required by typical trailer lighting systems. With this in place you could then add a set of magnetic towing lights like # TL21RK. I confirmed with my technical contact at Hopkins that this converter's turn signal output will be IN PHASE with the vehicle's turn signals. You might...
