For your 2019 Nissan Frontier SL I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75282 as it has the highest tongue weight rating of 750lbs, and a trailer weight rating of 5000lbs. If you use a weight distribution hitch those ratings get bumped up to 800lbs tongue weight and 8000lbs trailer weight.
From what I was able to find on your Frontier, the towing capacity range is 3500-6500lbs, so I recommend contacting your local Nissan dealership with you VIN as they will be able to give you the towing capacity of your specific truck. You will want to use the lowest rating between the vehicle and trailer hitch receiver.
If your Frontier does not have a factory trailer connector you will also need the # C56225 for a 4-way connector.
Lastly you will need a ball mount, hitch ball, and hitch pin and clip to complete your towing setup, and all of these components can be found in the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
