The Draw Tite trailer hitch part # 76031 that you referenced has a 6,000 lb towing capacity which would be more than enough for a 4,500 lb trailer. I looked up your 2015 Nissan Pathfinder and it should have a towing capacity of 5,000 lbs which would work with a 4,500 lb trailer as well.

For trailer wiring you'd then want the # 118273. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

Since 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.
