The wiring in your hitch is not rated for use with the Master Lock Electric Trailer Winch # 2953AT. The wiring could overheat and cause damage to the hitch wiring, the winch, or even your vehicle.
You will need to wire the winch separately. I recommend the Winch Trailer Wiring Kit # BDW20307. The kit contains properly sized wiring and connectors to make use of the winch easy and removable. view full answer...

If you're looking for just the bag, this is the one you need. etrailer Cargo Bag w/ Mounting Straps - Water Resistant - 20 cu ft - 59" x 24" x 24" Item # 988501. I've put our bag to the test! Don't worry about water getting inside the bag, after the test all the contents of the bag were bone dry.
If you don't have a roof rack you will want one because you will have a hard time strapping any bag you choose on your roof. Getting a roof rack system will help tremendously with strapping down... view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but mounting hardware for a grille guard is going to be manufacturer specific in most cases. If you've got the Aries Grille Guard # AA5051 then you can use the # AABRKT-5051 to replace your missing mounting brackets and hardware. If you've got a different brand then you'll need brackets specific to that grille guard. view full answer...
The Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1976 will come with its own removable arms to fit into their baseplate. Your Roadmaster Arms # RM-524434-5 that you have are only compatible with the their baseplate for a 2013-2016 Ford Fusion.
To adapt your Roadmaster BlackHawk 2 All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-422 to fit the Blue Ox base plate you need the Roadmaster Tow Bar to Blue Ox Brackets Adapter # RM-031. These will replace the end connectors on your Blackhawk tow par and fit the Blue Ox... view full answer...
I am sorry but at this time a 7-Way to 6 Pole square adapter is not available.
You do have 2 options though. You could rewire the trailer connector to a Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector - Trailer End, item # PK12706, using a circuit tester to verify each connection that needs to be made.
You could also build your own adapter to go between your vehicle and trailer. Use the 6-Pole Square Trailer Wiring Connector Kit (Car and Trailer Ends), item # 37995, and a Pollak... view full answer...
For a complete towing setup for your 2010 Dodge Nitro Heat to pull your 21 foot travel trailer, you will need a hitch, brake controller, and wiring. In addition, I would recommend a weight distribution system with sway control, and adding an aftermarket transmission cooler.
The Curt Trailer Hitch, part # 13334, which is a Class III 2 Inch Hitch, would be a good choice for your Dodge Nitro. Part # 13334 mounts below the rear bumper fascia. We do not have a hitch available for the Nitro... view full answer...
We have really great roof racks that are a confirmed fit for your 2007 Dodge Nitro like the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126S-2, # RRRCL4, # RRQMVA05, # RRQMVA10, and # RRRCP55-BK which fit to the factory fixed mounting points of the vehicle but the Inno foot kit you mentioned does not fit your vehicle.
The Rhino rack kit gives you a set of aero shaped bars that are easy to install and higher quality so it would be a setup you'd be very happy with. view full answer...
This sounds like something internal in the modulite has gone bad. Since there are no serviceable parts inside the modulite, there is not a replacement just for it because that would require opening the box to make the necessary wire connections. Because of this, you will need to replace the whole 118455 unit. view full answer...
The Tekonsha Wire Replacement, part # 3020, for Dodge Vehicles is for vehicles that have the factory 7-way trailer connection installed and the wiring ran for the brake controller to a connector under the dash on the left side of the brake pedal, usually blue.
The Dodge Nitro does not come pre-wired with a 7-way connector in the rear or factory wiring pre-installed for a brake controller. You will need to hardwire your brake controller to the stoplight switch, battery, ground and trailer... view full answer...
The Curt trailer hitch # 13334 is a confirmed fit for your 2011 Dodge Nitro but it does not include the trailer wiring harness so you would need to purchase that separately. The best options is the Tekonsha kit part # 118554 which is a confirmed custom fit. This is our most reliable brand and it would work well. I attached an install video for this for you to check out too.

For your 2010 Dodge Nitro you will need a different wiring harness. I recommend # 118554 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle. The one that you referenced was designed for 2001 to 2003 Chrysler and Dodge mini vans but not your Nitro. I have linked a video showing an example installation of 118554 for you.
I have also included a link to a help article I wrote with tips on routing the power wire. view full answer...
The Blue Ox 6-Pole, Round Pin, Trailer Wiring Socket # BLU43XR will attach to the Blue Ox Base Plate # BX1976 with the 2 #12-14 x 1” Self Drilling Screws that come included with the base plate. The holes are not threaded for a bolt, but rather the self drilling screws are used to fasten the wiring socket. view full answer...
There isn't a wiring harness to plug a brake controller directly into your 2011 Dodge Nitro so it will have to be hardwired in.
I recommend installation kit # 5506. On the brake controller the black wire is 12 volt power and connects to the positive battery terminal via the included circuit breaker. The white wire is ground and needs to go to the negative battery terminal. Red connects to the cold side of the brake switch to the wire that only has power when you step on the brake pedal... view full answer...
To install a 7-way on your 2011 Dodge Nitro will first require a 4-way be installed which we have found that the Tekonsha 4-ways are the most reliable so for that I would go with the # 118554.
Then for an easier to install brake controller solution the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 is a really great choice as it doesn't require any hardwiring and is proportional which means it senses how hard you apply the vehicle brakes and applies a relative amount on the trailer brakes.

Basically you would need to replace the rear hanger with a double eye style hanger, use a shackle strap and then get the appropriate leaf spring. The lightest capacity spring we have is the part # e84SR which you referenced.
For the price the best option is to just replace all of the hangers and use the kit part # APS1 which comes with everything you'd need and would work great. view full answer...

It sounds like there was a short or there is still a short that is causing some problems. To determine if the problem is on the vehicle side or the trailer side there is a test you can do. First unplug the trailer from your 2008 Dodge Nitro. Then use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to test the wires going into the converter box and the wires coming out.
Someone will need to sit in the vehicle and activate the lighting functions while you test. If all of the wires are correct coming... view full answer...
The fascia or front bumper will need to be removed in order to install either the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit part # 521431-1 or the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit part # BX1976 on your 2011 Dodge Nitro. Once the base plate kit is installed the bumper can then be reattached to the vehcile. Minor drilling or trimming may be required in order to refit the bumper.
For a tow bar that will work with the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar part # RM-520 and for... view full answer...
There are several factors that determine the towing capacity or weight carrying capacity of vehicles. Many times they may appear very similar but due to the frame, transmission or engine, the towing capacity can vary by quite a lot.
My research revealed that the trailer hitches we offer for the Jeep Liberty were either Class ll or Class lll and have either the same or lower weight capacity as the hitches we offer for your Dodge Nitro. I would strongly recommend using a hitch that is designed... view full answer...
