The Curt trailer hitch, # 13334, fits the 2007 to 2012 Dodge Nitro, so it will fit your 2008. I have included a link to the installation instructions and a video for you on the 2008 model.
There is one more hitch that fits your Dodge Nitro, the etrailer hitch # e83KR. These hitches are nearly identical except the # 13334 has a glossy black finish and the # e83KR has a matte black finish.
If you plan on doing some towing, I recommend the etrailer ball mount kit, # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag. For trailer wiring, use # 118554. I have included a link to the installation instructions for the wiring as well.
