Base plate kit installs like the # BX2680 typically aren't overly difficult but they take a few hours to do. Our installers will tell us to set aside an afternoon/evening to pull off the install.
For more info on the install check out the install video as well as instructions link I attached as well. view full answer...
From an online search for the 2021 Lincoln Nautilus Owners Manual, it lists that only the 2.7L model can be flat towed. You will want to look in your vehicle specific owners manual for instructions, this will be listed under Recreational Towing. From the copy I reviewed it states to use the manual park release procedure which is simply is to switch the ignition on, press and hold the brake pedal then push the switch down until the red warning lamp turns off.

I spoke with my contact at Curt Manufacturing, and was told that the spacer plate of the Curt sway control # 17200 is typically used if you are planning on bolting the ball to the trailer frame (instead of using the self-tapping screws). The ball would be stacked on top of the spacer plate then bolted to the trailer frame. view full answer...
For your 2019 Lincoln Nautilus we have the Draw-Tite hitch part # 75234 as a confirmed fit. You will not need to remove the rear bumper, however, you will need to remove a fascia panel below the vehicle but that's the extent of that. You will also need to lower the exhaust on both sides to install this hitch.
I've included a link to our installation of this hitch on a 2019 Lincoln Nautilus for you to check out. view full answer...
