I would be happy to help you. All three of the wiring harnesses, the Curt item # C56033, Hopkins item # HM11143645, and the Tekonsha item # 118480, fit your 2018 Nissan Rogue. I always recommend the Tekonsha wiring harness because they are built better and are far more reliable. This would be my recommendation to you today. The T-One connector plugs directly into your Nissan's wiring harness behind your rear tail lights. All of the critical components are installed inside your vehicle so weather will not be an issue. This will provide you with a 4-flat vehicle connector. I have linked an installation video below.

To round out your towing setup I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…
