What Curt Hitch Is Recommended for a 2000 Nissan Frontier with 2-Doors
Question:
I bought the Curt 13846 hitch for my 2000 Nissan Frontier Extended Cab,. which is what the picture showed on your website. However, the holes dont match up. The bed length is 75. What hitch options do I have???

Expert Reply:
It looks like you ordered the wrong hitch, the Curt Hitch part # 13841 that you referenced is designed to work on only the 4 door model 2000 Nissan Frontiers. You should have ordered the Curt Hitch part # 13831 as it is designed for the 2 door models since you said you have an extended cab.
That would explain why the mounting holes aren't lining up. I attached an install video for the # 13831.
To complete your towing setup you may also be interested in the etrailer.com Ball Mount kit part # 989900. This comes with ball mounts and two different ball sizes.
Then for trailer wiring you would want the Curt Trailer Wiring Harness part # C56FR.
