Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for a 2016 Nissan Frontier
Question:
looking class IV hitch receiver and wiring for 2016 frontier and bracket for wiring harness

Expert Reply:
The highest capacity trailer hitch we offer for your 2016 Nissan Frontier is the Curt Hitch part # 13241 which is a Class III hitch that has a 5,000 lb total trailer weight and 500 lb tongue weight capacity. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
For trailer wiring you would then want the part # C56225 which I attached an install video for as well. For a mounting bracket you would then want the part # 18144.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
