Trailer hitch receivers are designed to work with specific years, makes, and models of vehicles because they install to the frame, and those are different depending on the vehicle you have. That means a hitch for a 2006 Chevy Colorado would not be able to fit your 2009 Nissan Frontier, though we do have hitches that you can add.

The hitches that fit 2009 Nissan Frontier are:

- etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98869
- Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75282
- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13241

I have added links to video installs of the Draw-Tite and Curt hitch on similar model year Frontier trucks for you to check out as well.
