  • What Parts Are Needed or Recommended for Putting a Fifth Wheel Hitch on a 2008 Nissan Titan 8FT Bed
  • For your 2008 Nissan Titan, I would suggest the Reese Semi-Custom Install kit, part # RP30035-405. This kit has all the hardware you will need to get the truck set up for a traditional bed rail fifth wheel hitch. I have added links to the instructions as well. Reese 16K Fifth Wheel, part # RP30051 is a fifth wheel equipped with a slider, which you will not need since you have a full 8 foot bed. Instead I would recommend Reese part # RP30047. It is the same as 30051 but without the sliders....

  • Is there a Height Adjustable Trailer Coupler for a 2 Inch Ball
  • We have numerous adjustable ball mounts, see link, but as far as adjustable couplers you would want to look at channel mount designs such as # PSA200S0303 which you could use with channel # C45910. I have linked videos on both of these parts for you.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2012 Nissan Frontier
  • While we do have the parts needed to hook up your 2012 Nissan Frontier to be flat towed, the drive shaft disconnects are not something we offer, and are beyond our purview. I know that some products allow 4WD vehicles to use a single drive shaft disconnect that is for use with either a 2WD or 4WD, but we just don't have that familiarity with those products so the best bet there is to ask whomever you are getting the disconnect from, as they should be able to easily tell you that in regards...

  • What Lift Kit do I Need for My 2021 Airstream Caravel 16RB?
  • I did some research on your 2021 Airstream Caravel 16RB, and I unfortunately could not confirm what type of axles you have installed on your trailer. For example, if you have a Torflex # 9 axle with 2k capacity, you will use the lift kit # K71-723-01. If you have a Torflex # 10 with 2,300 - 4,000 k capacity, you would use the # K71-707-01. Although, it is important to note that these are not compatible with top-mount torsion axles. Another way of lifting your trailer is with an over-under...

  • Parts Needed to Install a Hayes Electric Trailer Brake Controller on a 2005 Nissan Pathfinder
  • There are a couple of different ways you can install a brake controller in your 2005 Nissan Pathfinder. If the Pathfinder came with a factory installed 7-Way trailer connector, you can use wiring harness # 20266. One end plugs into a port on the vehicle and the other end with bare wires attaches to the wires on the brake controller # 81741B color for color. The port on the vehicle will be located underneath and left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake...

  • Are Pigtails Available from the Tow Ready Part # 118267 for a 2010 Nissan Xterra
  • The Replacement Wiring Harness # 118267 is actually a piece of a few different wiring combinations for your 2010 Nissan Xterra (like part # 118266 for example). This is a whole wiring harness and unfortunately isn't offered in pigtails so you will need to get the whole kit. On the bright side you will be getting a whole new wiring harness with a brand new 7-Way connector from one of our most reliable wiring manufacturers so you know it will last.

  • Recommended Hitch Cargo Carrier for Class I Hitch on 2013 Nissan Altima
  • Yes. You can use something like the 20 X 47 Reese Carrier # 63155, which is compatible with 1-1/4" hitches. This carrier weighs around 44-lbs so it would allow you to carry roughly 156-lbs of cargo on the back of your 2013 Nissan Altima, but I do recommend confirming the tongue weight capacity in your owner's manual to be sure it is 200-lbs. While I think your best choice is above, you could also look at the other 2 compatible carriers, the # C18145 and the # C18110. These are both made...

  • Foam Kayak Blocks For A Thule Wingbar Roof Rack
  • The Malone Foam Kayak Block # MPG159 will work with your Thule Wingbar Roof Rack. The Malone block is more durable and won't tear as easy as the other foam blocks. The weight capacity of the foam block is 55 pounds. It can carry 1 kayak. Two blocks are suggested to safely transport a kayak. I attached a review video link below.

  • Does 2005 Nissan Armada Have a Brake Controller Connection Port Under Dashboard
  • Whether or not your 2005 Nissan Armada has a factory-installed 7-way socket at the rear bumper it will also have a brake controller connection port under the dash. This is usually found above the emergency brake but the connector may be tucked in and hard to spot. You can use a quick-connect wiring adapter # 3050-P to install a Tekonsha controller like their highly-rated Prodigy P3, part # 90195. If you do not have the factory 7-way you will also need a 7-way/relay kit # N40975.

  • Brake Controller and 7-Way Trailer Connector for 2021 Nissan Armada
  • Your 2021 Nissan Armada is already prewired for a 7-way and a brake controller. You'll just need a brake controller, a 7-way trailer connector and the relays needed to activate the tow package. For the 7-way, use part # N40975 which provides both a 4 pole and a 7-way. The connector will plug into the US Car connector located under the rear bumper, and includes the needed relays. You'll also need the # 18136 mounting bracket for the trailer connector. For a brake controller, I'd recommend...

  • Parts Need To Install Yakima LockNLoad Platform on a 2021 Nissan NV3500
  • With the Yakima RoundBar Crossbars # Y00410 attached to the SkyLine Towers # Y53TR you will need to remove the RoundBar SL Adapter # Y03536 and install the LockNLoad SL Adapter # Y05042. You will need 2 sets of the adapters as they are sold per for one set of towers as you could have 4 or 6 mounting points. You will use the same Landing Pads # Y00221 on the towers as they do not need changed. Yakima has verified this setup will fit with their Yakima LockNLoad Platform Roof Tray # Y42AV...

  • Suspension Enhancement for a 2020 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The only suspension enhancement available for your 2020 Nissan Pathfinder is the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs # F4118. These air bags install inside the coil springs on your Pathfinder and help to offer extra resistance for leveling and better control of the vehicle. I do recommend using the Bulldog Winch Portable Air Compressor # BDW41001 to inflate the air bags when needed. This compressor can easily plug into the 12V power outlet in the trunk of your Pathfinder and it includes...

  • Weight Capacity and Bike Rack Options For 2018 Nissan Rogue
  • In that question, the customer may have been referring to the towing capacity of their vehicle being a maximum tongue weight of 110lbs. That information can be found in your owners manual. So even if Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75902 has a 3,500 pound towing capacity and 350 pound tongue weight capacity, the towing capacity of the vehicle takes precedent. So the lowest of the two numbers is what you go with in regards to towing capacity. So please check the towing capacity...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2017 Nissan Frontier Behind an RV with Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar
  • For your 2017 Nissan Frontier and Falcon 2 tow bar I recommend Roadmaster XL base plates # 344-1B. The XL base plates are compatible with more accessories, such as the Guardian rock shield # RM-4000, compared to the other available base plates. If you do not already have safety cables I recommend # RM-643. The coiled design helps keep the cables off of the ground. For lighting a diode kit # RM-15247 is a popular option for Frontier owners. I have linked a video showing an example installation...

  • Bed Liner for 2017 Nissan Frontier with Spray-In Bed Liner
  • The BedRug Full Truck Bed Liner # BRN05KCK is specifically designed to be used with spray-in bed liners. I spoke to DeeZee about # DZ86965 and they confirm it will work great with a factory spray-in liner but they can't guarantee how well it will work if the liner was added later.

  • Parts Needed to Upgrade 4-Way to 7-Way and Add Brake Controller to 2006 Nissan Xterra
  • Since you already have a 4-Way on your 2006 Nissan Xterra you already have the relay harness that comes with the Curt T-Connector # C56226 so you just need the wiring for the 7-Way which is found as part # 118267. Please note that the gray plug that carries the additional functions of the 7-Way may or may not match up with what is on your vehicle. For some reason Nissan wasn't consistent with what plug they used on your vehicle and so sometimes it can be hit and miss but all you need to...
