Motorcycle / Mountain Bike Tailgate carrierRear Aluminum storage boxesTrailer HitchUpgrade rear suspension? Tail lights?Please drop links and photos below to help with this build. Then I will share results when this is completed. My dream setup is to have space for a mountain bike and 250cc Motorcycle or eMoto like these new Sur-Ron X Bikes - https://lunacycle.com/sur-ron-x-bike/ I would like to have boxes and a regular bike rack above the boxes, then motorcycle mount / trailer hitch off the back. I know Aluminess has some $$ options. I live in Washington State and Oregon NW area, so looking for area vendors. --Please post links, images, etc.--- Thank you!! Tim

Hello!! I am new to the forum so I hope this is the right place to put this? I have had My NV1500 for about two weeks for my business and have put a little over 2500 miles on her, great little van so far. I hope someone can help me with this, I have looked a lot online and all I can find is stuff made by etrailer that is not the least bit helpful to me. I am looking for installation instructions for the 2016 nv 1500 trailer wiring harness, the dealer threw in the hitch and harness but I cant find installation instructions for the wiring. I'm not worried about the hitch that part is obvious, but I would like to find the correct routing and connections for the wiring harness itself. I hope this is not something Nissan Keeps to themselves, also if pics are available it would be a big help. thanks!

Everything I can find seems to imply that his NV is up to the task, but safety first and all! It's a 2006 Jayco bunkhouse, a bit over 7,000#, and would be the perfect home and office on the road for myself and the nonprofit ProBoneO Program! Here are the details from the man with the van! Thanks in Advance! - DR and service dogs Riley & Mellow I have a 2012 NV 3500 HD SV Cargo. In the owners manual under towing load specification the GCWR with accessory hitch is 13,500 lb. and with tow package it is 16,000 lb. I don’t have a tow package. I want to add a class IV weight distributing hitch to the van. What is it about the factory installed tow package that lets one tow an extra 2500 lb? Is there any way I can do that with after market accessories? Any opinions about which hitch brands to use? Are the U-Haul hitches bad? Most of the travel trailers we look at have dry weights around 7000 lb. so I really need that extra 2500 lb. for stuff in the trailer and van. The 9500 lb. towing capacity was why I wanted the NV V8 but it seems like I was thrown because it looks like the towing package is standard from 2014 on.
