Yakima JetStream Crossbars Roof Rack Installation - 2022 Nissan Armada- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Yakima JetStream roof rack system on our 2022 Nissan Armada. What a roof rack system is gonna do for you, is help solve the issue of getting additional cargo space when you're loaded down with passengers. The Armada is more focused as far as moving people versus objects. So if you have longer or bulkier items, having a roof rack is gonna allow you to transport that as well as your crew at the same time. Your weight capacity is right at 165 pounds, but you definitely wanna check your owner's manual to make sure you're within the capacity of your roof. So our JetStream roof rack system consists of our 60 inch JetStream bar. more

Yakima Roof Rack Installation - 2019 Nissan Sentra- Video

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have a Yakima roof rack system that we are going to take a look at on our 2019 Nissan Sentra. If you're planning on carrying around some fun accessories like a rooftop box or a basket or maybe some kayaks, what you first need is a roof rack system, and for your Nissan Sentra, yes, there are options for you. Now, this Yakima system is unique in that it does have a little bit more of an involved process. It does take longer to install, but the results are that it gives you more crossbar spread, meaning more space or more surface area for your cargo. If you're carrying around kayaks, ladders, even a Christmas tree, that extra long cargo would appreciate this wider crossbar spread. That crossbar spread is measured from the center of one crossbar to the other. more

Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit Installation - 2016 Nissan Versa Note- Video

Ryan: Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2016 Nissan Versa Note, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Roadmaster battery charge line kit for towed vehicles.Now for the Nissan Versa Note, you're going to need seven main components to be able to flat tow it down the road. You're going to need a tow bar, a base plate, safety cables, a diode wiring kit, a braking system, a battery charge line, and a brake light relay.Our charge line kit isn't going to hardly take up any space, and this is where we have it mounted. Whether you're new to flat towing or experienced, everyone can relate to that uneasy feeling you get when you go to put your key in the ignition and your battery's dead, and when we're flat towing our Nissan, it will use some of our battery power, so the chances of that happening are pretty good, and that's what our battery charge line is going to prevent. It's going to get connected to the center post here in your 6-way and use some of the power from the motor home's batteries, that power is going to run up into the engine compartment to our breaker where you have it mounted, that power's going to travel through the breaker and come over to the positive terminal on our battery.It's going to provide us with a total of 15 amps, which isn't going to affect your motor home or RV's batteries, but it's going to be enough to charge our car battery. So all in all, it's going to help prevent us from having to bother anyone at the camp site for a jumpstart, having to worry about finding a battery if we can't find that jumpstart, or even lugging around a jump box.Now this is one of the easier things to install, so let's go ahead and do that together now. more

The RoundBars are held in place with the TimberLine Towers, which are specifically designed to work with raised rails. They feature a rubber-coated stainless steel strap so they won't harm or scratch any finish. more
