  • PSI Rating of Westlake Tire on Aluminum Wheel
  • The tire on the Westlake ST205/75R14 Radial Tire w 14" Condor Aluminum Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D - Gunmetal # LH37VR has a maximum psi rating of 65, which will allow it to have its full 2,040 lb capacity. In order to replace your tire with the correct one you will want to go off of two things: its size, which should be on the sidewall somewhere on your current tire (like in the accompanying photo), and its capacity. You will want the combined capacity of your tires to match, or ideally...

  • How Do I Know If I Have The Factory Tow Package Or Not
  • If you are unsure if you have the tow package or not, the only way to find out for sure would be to contact a dealership with your VIN. With certain vehicles we can sometimes check to see if certain electrical components are present, like a 7-way trailer plug, which would indicate that you do in fact have a tow package installed. That can be kind of hit-or-miss though, and the best way to find out for sure is to contact a dealership.

  • Potential Brake Controller Harness Location on a 2023 Nissan Frontier
  • We have not had the opportunity to do a brake controller installation on a 2023 Nissan Frontier yet. But if the plug is located in the same place as the 2022 model year, then the plug will be tucked behind the kick plate located to the left of the drivers legs and by the parking brake pedal. I have included an installation video of the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller # RED44FR in a 2022 Nissan Frontier and in the video they show where the plug is located. This would be installed...

  • How Can I Reduce Bouncing On A Bumper Pull Trailer
  • There are a few things that can cause bounce with a bumper pull trailer. Generally, bias ply tires would not contribute to trailer bounce, unless they are excessively worn. Trailer bounce is can be caused by worn out suspension components. You will want to get under the trailer and give everything a good look-over. You will want to check and make sure the trailer is completely level when towing. If all of that checks out, it may be the case that you are just not towing enough weight...

  • How to Determine if a Trailer Wheel is Hub-Centric or Lug-Centric
  • First, I would say if there is any question on the road worthiness of the trailer, take the steps to correct it. Better safe than sorry. Some trailers have wheels that are hub-centric, the wheel is centered on the hub using the center pilot holes. Other trailers have wheels that are lug-centric, the wheel is centered on when you tighten down the lug nuts. To determine which one you have on your trailer, take a look at how the wheel attaches to the hub. If it uses wheel bolts, like # 7-23,...

  • Can A Brake Controller Be Turned Off So It Doesn't Drain Vehicle Battery
  • The fact that the Curt # C51170 has a direct connection to battery is not unique to the Curt Spectrum brake controller, they all install in that manner. This is purposely done as a safety measure, so the user can't forget to turn on the brake controller before they tow. The good news is that after a short period of inactivity (varies from 10-20 minutes) the controller will go into a sleep mode, at which point they only draw a miniscule amount of power. Unless the vehicle will be left unattended...

  • Amp Draw of Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty & Will Blue Light Shut Off
  • Appreciate the purchase of the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR, and that blue light does go off eventually - it will fade out after roughly 15 minutes. Keep in mind once you open the door the blue light will come back on, so it may not look like it is going out but take a gander in the window after 15 minutes and the light will be gone. It does need to be disconnected from the trailer for this to happen though; if you leave the # RED24FR it will not go into sleep mode....

  • Does etrailer Hitch For 2023 Nissan Rogue Interfere With Hands-Free Liftgate
  • The hands-free liftgate on your 2023 Nissan Rogue will still be functional after installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e93ZR. You'll need to kick your foot to either side of the 2 inch receiver, but it will still activate. I also wanted to mention, just in the interest of being thorough, that if you also plan on doing any towing with your '23 Rogue and need a wiring harness, the correct fit is the Vehicle Wiring Harness # C44ER.

  • Hopkins Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2019 Nissan Frontier
  • On your 2019 Nissan Frontier that came with the factory harness, you will only need to plug in the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM43534 once. Then when you need to use the towing connections you will just plug into either the 4-way flat or 7-way blade connectors. Some Dielectric Grease # 11755 is recommend on the connectors to protect against corrosion and other wiring issues.

  • Cross Bars and Roof Top Tent for 2015 Nissan Rogue
  • Yes, you will need cross bars to go with your factory installed rails. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRVA126B-2 installed using the Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRSX100. I have linked a product review and installation video below of these being put on 2015 Nissan Rogue. These have a dynamic weight capacity of 165 lbs. and will work with the roof top tents such as the Yakima SkyRise Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars - 3 Person, # Y79XR or # Y07437...

  • Measurements Needed To Determine Best Weight Distribution System For Towing
  • For a correct measurement you need to measure the distance from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on your vehicle. You then need to measure the height from the ground to the bottom of your coupler on your trailer when the trailer is level and on level ground. You want to keep the system as level as possible and can use an adjustable shank to be able to tow your trailer level. If your trailer weighs more than 50 percent of the weight of your towing vehicle it is always...

  • What is a Drawbar and Why Would I Need One?
  • The hitch drawbar or ball mount is the part that slides into the hitch receiver that has the trailer ball bolted to it. You'll need the ball mount if you plan on towing, but if you're only using the hitch as a mount for a hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack or cargo carrier, you won't need it. If you need a ball mount that's compatible with the Curt Class I hitch, part # C11256, I'd recommend # 3592. For 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, use # 19260 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball. For a trailer...

  • Etrailer e98907 Class III Hitch Interferes with Automatic Liftgate Sensors on 2019 Nissan Murano
  • According to the manufacturer, the etrailer brand # e98907 Class III hitch will affect the rear liftgate sensors, but only in that the area right under the center of the bumper. If you try about one foot to either side of the hitch receiver tube, the sensors will pick up the movement. You might need to reach a bit further back under the bumper than you're used to, but the sensors should still pick up the movement of your foot.

  • Is Curt Trailer Hitch For 2023 Nissan Leaf a Hidden Hitch
  • Yep, the Curt hitch for your 2023 Nissan Leaf is entirely hidden except for the 1-1/4" receiver. The crosstube will not show at all so your Leaf will maintain its aesthetic. The part number for the Curt hitch that fits your '23 Leaf is the following: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C49VV

  • Weight Distribution Used With Auto-Level Rear Suspension on 2018 Nissan Armada
  • The auto-leveling system can make it tricky to set up a weight distribution system, as it can vary the amount of pressure in the system according to the load and suspension movement. If it's possible to shut off the system and then proceed to set up the weight distribution system for towing purposes, that's certainly the way to go. I checked through the owner's manual, and wasn't able to determine if the auto-leveling suspension system could be deactivated. If that isn't possible, I'd...

  • Connecting Magnetic Tow Bar Lights With 4-Way to Motorhome With 7-Way
  • We have some options for you to connect magnetic tow bar lights to a motorhome connector (which should be a standard RV 7-way), though there isn't an adapter to go from the 4-round on the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Light Set # 337TL257M. While you could do some cutting and splicing to get it to work, the much easier option is to go with a magnetic light set with a 4-flat, the Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights # RM-2120. There is an adapter that will go from a 4-flat to a 7-way, so...
