The Curt Class V Receiver Hitch # C15306 is designed to install and sit beneath the factory hitch on your 2017 Nissan Titan XD like you mentioned. This hitch though cannot be installed along with the Curt Class III Receiver Hitch # C13317 on your truck. This is because both hitches use the same exact mounting space on the frame rails for installation; the Class V receiver simply hangs down lower which allows it to sit beneath a factory receiver.

If you have the Class III # C13317 installed and are needing an additional receiver, another option is an adapter like the Curt # D-192. This will provide you with dual 2 inch receivers on your truck so you can tow a trailer and install a hitch-mounted accessory like a bike rack at the same time. Just keep in mind that when using an adapter like this it will reduce the trailer hitch's overall capacity by 50 percent.

I have attached a short video demonstration on this product that you can also check out.
