Expert Answers about Nissan Quest
- Can Air Lift Suspension Enhancement Kit Compensate for Worn Out Suspension Components
- Suspension enhancement kits like the Air Lift part # AL60806 weren't designed to fix sagging worn out suspension. This kit can remove the sag like you mentioned but with the amount of air pressure required to do this you'd have a pretty rough ride quality. Best option would be to fix the vehicle's suspension and then go with the Air Lift kit if you need additional support.

- I checked with Thule and for your 2009 Nissan Quest that has rails that run front to back the older 400XT feet would not be a fit since that's a naked roof rack fit.
Instead they recommend the part # TH7502-TH7502 that will wrap around the raised rails.

- The Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier, item # TH911XT, is designed to work on the back of your 2009 Nissan Quest, and has a weight capacity of 105 lbs.
Most adult bikes weigh no more that 35 lbs each as long as they are not downhill bikes or beach cruisers, and most child bikes weigh around 20 pounds. This leaves 15 lbs left over with 2 adult bikes and 1 child bike.
A hitch and hitch bike rack is more convenient than a trunk mount style and will ease access to the rear of the vehicle when...

- The Curt trailer hitch, # C13078, does not require stacked washers for isntallation on a 2011 Nissan Quest. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount, interchangeable ball set, a hitch pin and clip, and a carrying bag. For trailer wiring, use # 118547. I have included a link to the wiring instructions as well.

- The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2015 Quest is the Draw-Tite Max Frame, part # 75714. This is a Class lll trailer hitch and it has a 2-inch receiver opening. This trailer hitch when installed on a 2015 Quest has a distance of 4-inches form the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the rear bumper which is important when considering any accessory for the hitch.
The bike carrier I recommend for you is the Yakima FullSwing, part # Y02465. The nice thing about this carrier is that...
view full answer... - Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying Electric E-Bikes
- The only bike racks we carry that can handle the weight of a 57 lb e-bike would be a hitch mounted option. Like you have noticed, the trunk mounted bike racks have lower capacities. The reason for this is that if you put too much weight on a trunk rack you would most likely damage the rear of a vehicle.
So the only recommendation I can make starts with you getting a hitch. For that you would want the Curt Hitch part # C13563.
Then for a platform bike rack specifically designed to work...

- According to your Owner's Manual for your 2014 Nissan Quest, your vehicle is rated for a maximum tongue load of 350 lbs, so your vehicle in this case will limit the load because it is not rated as high as the hitch.
I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Round Tube Receiver Hitch, # 75714, for your 2014 Nissan Quest. This hitch receiver will have a 525 lb tongue weight rating, which will allow you to have extra cargo behind the rear axle as well. With the other hitch receivers...

- Transmission coolers are not vehicle specific so you can use a cooler on your 2008 Nissan Quest. The fittings are specific to vehicles but most of the coolers come with a universal adapter or multiple sized fittings to fit different sizes.
A transmission cooler would be a good addition when towing with any vehicle. The added cooling offered will prolong the life of your transmission by keeping the fluid at the optimum temperature. I recommend the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission...

- Based on your information, it sounds like you want an entire kit including a new axle. We have several options available so we would need to confirm your 2008 Jayco 1207 axle weight rating and bolt pattern. This will be stamped on the axle or there will be a label.
From my research, it looks like your Jayco probably has a standard 3,500-lb axle with a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern that has a hub-face-to-hub-face length of 89 inches. If this sounds like a match then the Dexter Trailer Axle...

- Yes, I am confident that once you have the Titan chains # TC1547 installed on your 2014 Nissan Quest with 225/65-16 tires there will be adequate clearance between the outer edge of the wheel and the tire chains. On the off chance that there isn't right out of the box the chains do offer a little bit of adjustability. I have included a link to a video review of these chains for you.

- Having a bike rack, loaded or unloaded, bounce some is common but there are measures you can take to reduce the movement of the rack. The issue is that the shank on a bike rack has to be slightly smaller than the receiver opening for it to fit correctly so there will always be some play.
Some racks come with an anti-rattle device that usually takes the form of a threaded bolt uses to pull the shank of the bike rack tight to the side of the receiver to reduce or eliminate the movement in...
view full answer... - Transmission Cooler Recommendation for 2000 Nissan Quest
- Transmission (and oil) coolers are not vehicle-specific so you can use the largest and most-efficient unit that will fit into the space you have available to install it. I suggest you read through the linked articles which will give you plenty of excellent background information on coolers themselves and their installation.
An excellent choice in a transmission cooler for your Quest is the Derale # D13503 which is an efficient Class III plate-fin type. This cooler is shown in the linked...

- I have a great solution for you, but at this time we don't have air suspension available for your 2011 Nissan Quest.
Since it sounds like you are towing a better solution is actually a weight distribution system. A WD system actually takes and distributes the tongue weight of your trailer to the front axle of your tow vehicle which will improve braking and handling. A suspension enhancement setup will help your tow vehicle sit level when towing but it won't help the handling or braking.

view full answer... - Can Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Be Run Through 7-Way Trailer Connector
- The power for an electric over hydraulic actuator will need to pull power from an on-board battery. It should not pull power from the tow vehicle's battery via the trailer connector. That said, the trailer connector will need to have multiple pins to transfer the brake output signal and battery charge line. Therefore, you'll need a 7-way like the 4 to 7-Way with 4-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. If you don't have a 7-way on the trailer I recommend the etrailer Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit...
view full answer... - Converting 4-Way on 2016 Nissan Quest to 7-Way For Use with Pop-Up Camper
- There are a couple of ways to convert a 4-Way connector to a 7-Way depending on what the trailer is actually equipped with.
If your pop-up doesn't have electric brakes or a battery that you need to charge, using an adapter like the Hopkins # 37185 is your best option. This will plug right into the existing 4-Way on the Nissan Quest to provide you with a 7-Way on the other end. If the trailer doesn't have brakes or a battery, the only additional wire coming from the adapter that needs...
view full answer... - More Reliable Trailer Wiring Harness for 2016 Nissan Quest
- Sounds like the harness is getting overdrawn by your trailer wiring which is shorting it out and causing it to fail and then also causing the lights on the vehicle to stay on. Does the trailer have a lot of lights on it? We don't have the best luck with Curt trailer wiring kits so I would recommend the Hopkins kit # HM11143674 instead for your 2016 Nissan Quest.
view full answer... - Bike Rack Adapter Recommendation for Mesh Floor Cargo Carrier
- For carrying two bike in the front section of your trailer that basically is a mesh cargo carrier the Stromberg Carlson bike rack part # CC-125 would be your best option. This is designed to fit mesh floor cargo carriers and provide hoops for bikes to be attached with.
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch for 2012 Nissan Quest to Carry 5-Bike Rack
- Yes, a Class II hitch like the Curt part # C12061 that you mentioned can carry a 5-bike rack since it's stronger than a Class I hitch. We have the Thule Apex XT 5 Bike Rack part # TH9026XT that would work well with this hitch too as it was designed for fitting a Class II hitch.
The best hitch option for your 2012 Nissan Quest though is the Draw Tite part # 75714 though. This is a 2 inch hitch which means it's significantly stronger by design but also because this rack does not require...

- Yes, the Kuat Transfer bike rack part # KU24FR would fit and work well on a 2 inch hitch like the # C13563 installed on your 2008 Nissan Quest minivan. You still might take one measurement to be absolutely certain.
You will want to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole out to the furthest point out on the rear bumper. As long as that distance is less than 6 inches this rack would fit and clear. From the install pics I have seen of this hitch on your vehicle there should be no problem,...
