  • Recommended 4 Flat Trailer Wiring For A 2015 Nissan NV350
  • I do have an option to add wiring to your 2015 Nissan NV350, but as this vehicle was never offered in the US market, it will not be plug and play. With that said, you will want the Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT. This includes everything you need, so you do not actually need to cut any of the wires on your vehicle. This is a powered unit though, so you will need to run a wire up to the batter, but this...

  • Could High Altitude Jets be Used in 4,500 Watt RV Generator at Lower Altitudes
  • You'll have to match the jets with the elevation you plan to use the etrailer generator part # 333-0004 in. If there was one jet kit that would work in higher and lower elevations we would have installed it in the generator, but the reality is that with elevation changes there is also a large change in air density so you have to have the correct jets to allow the engine of the generator to function properly. At higher altitudes the air is thinner so you need jets that allow more air into...

  • Can You Get Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System with More Drop

  • Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator For Disc Brakes to Replace Surge Brake Actuator
  • There is not a direct replacement for the LP7000 actuator for disc brakes, and to answer your question, electric over hydraulic braking is better in really every single way. While hydraulic brakes give better stopping power than electric brakes, electric brakes are more responsive, so what an EOH actuator does is combine the two, giving you the best possible stopping power. So I always recommend going electric over hydraulic if possible, and for disc brakes you can use the following: -...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2013 Nissan NV 3500 Van
  • I'd recommend the Draw-Tite Class IV hitch, part # 75715. The hitch has a 7500 lb towing/1125 lb tongue weight capacity. If you're looking for a higher capacity Class IV hitch, go with the Curt Class IV hitch, # C14000. This hitch has a 10,000 lb towing/1000 lb tongue weight capacity, although you'll be limited by the towing capacity of the van if it's lower than the capacity of the hitch. You might also need the following to complete your towing system: Trailer wiring harness, part #...

  • Nissan NV 3500 2016 Suspension Enhancement that Provides Smoothest Ride Quality
  • For optimum ride quality when towing and not towing your best option is something you may have already actually. A properly rated weight distribution system that is set up properly will give you the best support quality when towing and then when not towing the ride quality wouldn't be affected since system isn't hooked up. Using a Timbren or Sumospring would add more support but shouldn't be necessary unless you have a WD system that just isn't properly rated or set up. You can add either...

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for 2013 Nissan NV 3500
  • Since you installed the 4-way # 118553 on your 2013 Nissan NV 3500 what you need to install a brake controller is the part # ETBC7 and not the part # 3050-P which you referenced. The # ETBC7 comes with everything needed to convert the 4-way to a 7-way and also wire up the brake controller. Had your vehicle had a factory 7-way you would instead have used the part # 3050-P.

  • Adapter Needed to Power Taillights of Camper that Have Separate Turn Signals and Brake Circuits
  • Since your tow vehicle uses combined trailer wiring you'll need to install a signal converter on the camper so that you can get the stop/turn circuits separated out like you need. For that you'd want the part # 118158 and you'd be set. You'd want to install this on the camper's wiring since it is the factor in the equation that uses a non-standard setup.
