Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Installation - 2019 Nissan Maxima- Video

Shane: Hey everyone, Shane here with etrailer.com. Today I have a 2019 Nissan Maxima. I'm going to walk you through how to install the Draw-Tite class one trailer hitch receiver. Adding a hitch on your vehicle is going to give you a lot of different options. Now you want to put a bike rack on so you don't have to try to load your bikes in the back of the trunk or on the roof or maybe you want to put a cargo carrier on it, get some items out from inside the car, put them on the cargo carrier to make a little bit more room for your passengers. This is going to be a class one hitch so you're going to be limited to a two bike bike rack, steel construction, black powder coat finish so it's really going to maintain a nice clean look on the vehicle. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2014 Nissan Maxima - Draw-Tite- Video

Today on our 2014 Nissan Maxima, we'll be installing the Draw-Tite sport frame class 1 trailer hitch receiver with an inch and a quarter opening, part number 24796. All right. Here's what our hitch looks like once it's been installed. As you can see, a very minimal amount hangs down below our vehicle here. We just have the rectangular construction of the frame and the inch and a quarter class 1 receiver here. Additionally, we have these really easy to use safe chain loops on the side of the receiver. They're really thin in diameter, so you can even fit the smallest of safety chains on here. This hitch has a max trailer weight rating of 2,000 pounds and a max tongue weight rating of 200 pounds. more

Best 2014 Nissan Maxima Hitch Options- Video

Today on our 2014 Nissan Maxima we'll be looking at the most popular hitch options. On the top we have a Draw-Tite, part number 24796. On the bottom we have a CURT, part number C11352. They are both class one hitches that are rated for 2000 pounds max trailer weight and 200 pounds max tongue weight rating. Now while these two hitches may look very similar in their design, they do mount entirely different to the vehicle. As far as ease of installation goes, if you've never reverse-fish-wired a bolt into a small cavity before, the Draw-Tite will be easier since you're just drilling a straight hole and you'll have easy access to drop the bolts down through. Now another main difference we have between the two hitches here is the way the safety chain cables can attach to. more

Best 2013 Nissan Maxima Hitch Options- Video

Today on our 2013 Nissan Maxima, we'll be looking at the most popular hitch options. On the top, we have a Draw-Tite, part number 24796, and on the bottom, we have a Curt, part number C11352. They are both class 1 hitches that are rated for 2000 pounds max trailer weight, and 200 pounds max tongue weight rating.

As far as ease of installation goes, if you've never reverse fishwired a bolt into a small cavity before, the Draw-Tite will be easier, since you're just drilling a straight hole, and you'll have easy access to drop the bolts down through. Another main difference we have between the two hitches here is the way the safety chain cables can attach to, and you see in the Draw-Tite here, it's a nice round, tubular construction there, so it'll be really easy to even fit the smallest diameter safety chain hooks onto, whereas the Curt, down here on the bottom, it has this angular plate that's welded to the bottom frame of the hitch and the receiver here, and the opening is a little bit tighter, especially here towards the sides, so if you have a small diameter safety chain hook, you may find it difficult to fit over that. Another key difference that I want to point out here today is if you look through the receiver of the Curt, it's completely open, it goes all the way through the back side, so if you have a long inch-and-a-quarter hitch-mounted accessory such as a bike carrier, or ball mount, or a cargo rack, things like that, it may not pose an issue for you on this one, since it's open, it may even stick out the back a little bit. However, the Draw-Tite here, as you can see, it is not completely open. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2009 Nissan Maxima- Video

Alright, today on this 09 Nissan Maxima, we are going to install part number 24796 from Draw-Tite. This will also apply to part number 60873 from Hidden Hitch. The first step is to go ahead and remove the exhaust on both sides of the vehicle of course. That will give us more room to put the hitch up and mark our holes for drilling. So let us go ahead and spray down the bolts with your favorite penetrant. Let it sit for awhile. Then go ahead and break the bolts loose. Below the muffler is a rubber hanger. It would be a good idea to spray it down with your favorite lubricant and go ahead and pull it out backwards. Alright, we have our driver side done. Let us go over to the passenger side and repeat the same process. OK, now the heat shield is going to be in the way of holding the hitch up into place. So, we are just going to push it out, away from the trunk pan here. You just want a general curve on it. That way we can get up, in between the bottom of the trunk pan here and the side of the frame. When we are all said and done, this will actually get pushed back in place. 1:01 more
