Rhino Rack Roof Rack Installation - 2011 Nissan Rogue

Today on this 2011 Nissan Rogue we are going to be installing a Rhino Rack SXB roof rack system with Aero crossbars. After we have assembled the crossbars, we can begin mounting them on our vehicle. First, we will take the front crossbar and loosely place it into position. First we will make sure that the crossbar is overhanging the same amount on both the driver side and passenger side. And then we will position it so that it is running perfectly perpendicular to the vehicle. Once we have the first crossbar in position, we can begin tightening it down. As we tighten this Allen head bolt, not only will the clamp begin to grab on to our side rails but it will also tighten the crossbars to the clamps. We will move back and forth from the driver side to the passenger side to tighten down the rack evenly. Once we have our front crossbar installed, we can go ahead and install our locking end caps. The locking end caps not only help us seal the end of our crossbars. But because they are locking, they also protect our rack from being stolen. 1:03
Thule Crossroad Roof Rack Installation - 2011 Nissan Rogue

Today on this 2011 Nissan Rogue we are going to show you how to install a Thule Crossroad roof rack system. The Thule Crossroad system is designed to attach to vehicles with factory raised side rails like we have on our Rogue. Once we have the crossbars assembled, we can place them on top of our side rails. Make sure that they are spaced evenly on both sides with the side rails so that the crossbars run perpendicular to your vehicle. Once you have the front crossbar in place, you can use the integrated tool on the end cap to tighten them down. The Crossroad feet attach to the factory side rails using a rubber coated steel band. This band will strongly and securely grip your side rails but the rubber coating will help protect them as well. As we tighten down the clamp on the Crossroad foot, it also tightens the crossbar into the foot. We will move back and forth from the driver side to the passenger side to make sure the rack tightens down evenly and we do not lose our positioning. 0:57
Trailer Wiring Harness Installation - 2009 Nissan Rogue

Today we are going to be installing wiring harness part number 118480 on a 2009 Nissan Rogue. We have opened up the rear hatch of the vehicle and we are going to go ahead and point out where we need to locate the connection points for our wiring harness. The connection points are actually located behind the tail light assemblies, on the inside of the vehicle, behind these panels, on both sides of the vehicle. To gain access to those, we are going to need to remove quite a few items here from the rear end of the vehicle. To release these screws here, you actually want to align the arrows. There is an arrow here on the inboard side, along with the arrow on the knob. If you align those two, it will allow these two clips to release. There are also three screws here that are holding this compartment in that we are going to need to remove as well.
Trailer Hitch Installation - 2009 Nissan Rogue

Today on this 2009 Nissan Rogue, we will be installing Hidden Hitch part number 87457. This installation will also apply to the Draw-Tite part number 75606. Looking underneath the vehicle at the driver side frame rail, you can see here that there are three existing weld nuts in the bottom of the frame. Into these weld nuts we will be using the 12 mm bolts along with the conical tooth washers. That setup will be the same over here on the passenger side. But you will note that we have, not only an existing tow hook that is taking up the first two holes at the rear of the frame, but we also have an existing bolt here at the forward side as well. So the tow hook which consists of two bolts here at the bottom of the frame and two bolts on the side of the frame will need to be removed before we can get started. And then we will also want to remove the bolt at the more forward side as well.
