Easiest Hitch To Install On A 2022 Nissan Altima

Question:

I am interested in a trailer hitch that is for my 2022 Nissan Altima. Between the Curt Hitch # C11352 and The Draw-Tite hitch # 24796 which one is easier to install? Looking to haul my bike.

When it comes to installing a trailer hitch onto your 2022 Nissan Altima the Curt Hitch # C11352 and The Draw-Tite Hitch # 24796 are your two options. Both hitches have a similar installation process but I would recommend The Draw-Tite Hitch # 24796 to have the easiest installation because you do not have to permanently remove the heat shield for the hitch installation like you do on the Curt Hitch.

The Draw-Tite hitch has a maximum tongue weight of 200 pounds, and has a receiver opening of 1-1/4 inches by 1-1/4 inches. When it comes to carrying your bike I recommend The Swagman Trailhead Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # S63360. This bike rack can carry up to 2 bikes weighing 35 pounds per bike. A cool feature of this bike rack is that the mast tilts down with bikes loaded and you can access your cargo area.

I attached an installation video link of the Draw-Tite hitch being installed onto a 2021 Nissan Altima. The installation will be identical for your 2022 Nissan Altima.
