Towing Set Up for a 2011 Nissan Juke  

Question:

I am hoping to fly to Lawrence, Kansas and pickup an inherited Nissan 2011 Juke this week and add a trailer hitch to it and pull a 5foot x 10foot U-haul trailer loaded with household goods back to Maryland. Not known at this time: is the Juke a four wheel drive or other. The household load via internet pics looks moderate - a single apartment sized load. Enough info to recommend a way forward?

We have 2 different hitches for the 2011 Nissan Juke for both the AWD and FWD models. Both of the hitches have a 200 lbs tongue weight capacity and a 2000 lbs maximum towing weight. You will need to check with uhaul on the weight of their trailer and the cargo to ensure you don't overload your vehicles towing limit.

The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4 item # 24892 is for the FWD model.

Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" item # 24867 is for the AWD model.

For your trailer light control functions I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # C56124. This is a plug in adapter that connects in line with your Juke's rear tail lights.


For your ball mount I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 1-1/4" Hitches - 2" Ball - 3/4" Rise - 3,500 lbs
Item # C45147.
