Air Bag Kit for 2013 Nissan Pathfinder that is Towing Trailer Using Weight Distribution

Question

Question:

Installed Reese hitch, your part #49912, on 2013 Nissan Pathfinder, but back end of car is sagging with trailer attached, even with hitch installed at its highest position. Will installing suspension air bags, like your part #AL63WQ, help with that, or do I need a different hitch system? Do you have any other recommendations for preventing sagging of the rear of the car when towing the trailer? The trailer is within the weight limits for towing by this Pathfinder 2022 Forest River Wildwood FSX.

An air bag kit installed on your 2013 Nissan Pathfinder would prevent the sag you are still experiencing while using your weight distribution system. The Air Lift kit part # AL63WQ is a confirmed fit for your vehicle so it would be the correct kit

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
