Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Installation - 2023 Nissan Pathfinder

Hey, guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today, we have a 2023 Nissan Pathfinder and we're gonna be taking a look at and I'm gonna show you how to install the CURT Class 3 Two-Inch Hitch Receiver. Adding a hitch receiver to the back of your Pathfinder is gonna allow you to tow a small trailer if you add some wiring with it. It'll allow you to haul those cargo carriers or bike racks on the back to free up some of that space inside and put it outside on a rack. This hitch will feature a two inch by two inch hitch receiver tube opening. That is going to be the most common size of hitch receiver, which is going to allow you to pick up a lot of different accessories. more

Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Installation - 2022 Nissan Pathfinder

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer and today we're taking a look and installing the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver on a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder. Now this is what your hitch is gonna look like when it's installed in the vehicle and the best part about it is it's a hidden cross tube, meaning the main portion that bolts up to your vehicle is hidden behind the rear fascia, leaving only the receiver hanging down. You also have a nice bracket here so if you do plan on towing, mounting up your 7- or 4-pole makes it nice and easy by being able to bolt it up to this bracket. Now this being a 2-inch by 2-inch is really nice because it's kind of the standard size throughout the industry. You're gonna have plenty of options available, so whatever life throws at you, you'll be able to find an accessory for that. Now, when putting your accessories in place it requires a 5/8 pin and clip. more

Today, we're going to be going over and showing you how to install the Curt trailer hitch receiver, here on a 2020 Nissan Pathfinder. So this is what our trailer hitch is going to look like installed. Now, thankfully, most of it is actually hidden behind our bumper here, so the only thing we're going to see is the receiver tube. Therefore, we get a very factory like finish. Now, what we can see, the receiver tube, it has a nice black powder coated finish, which is going to do a great job of helping the hitch hold up to rust and corrosion, being that it is on the underside of the vehicle. And it also, again, helps it blend in more due to our black plastic panels here. more

Hey everybody, how's it going Today, we're gonna be going over and showing you how to install the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver here on our 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. So, here's what our trailer hitch looks like installed. It has what's known as a hidden design, meaning that the cross tube is actually gonna be tucked up behind the bumper here. Now, this does a couple different things. Number one, it provides us with the best ground clearance, because the receiver tube sits closely to the bottom edge of the bumper fascia. And number two, it provides the best overall aesthetics, because we have more of a factory look there, with most of the trailer hitch being hidden. more

Hey everybody, how's it going Today, we're gonna be going over and showing you how to install the CURT trailer hitch receiver, here on our 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. So this is what our trailer hitch is gonna look like installed, but something I really like about this particular one, is that it has a hidden design. So, what this means is the cross tube that attaches to the receiver in each frame bracket, is actually hidden up behind the bumper there, therefore giving us the best overall factory-like appearance. It's also gonna provide the best ground clearance because the receiver tube is tucked up nice and tight underneath the bumper. So if we take a closer look, we're gonna see a durable black powder coated finish, which is gonna help, one, blend in with the bumper well, and two, it's gonna help protect it from rust and corrosion, being that it's on the bottom of the vehicle here. We're also gonna have a nice rounded collar on our receiver tube opening. more

Rob here, detroit.com, and today you're going to be taking a look at the Curt class three custom-fit trailer hitch receiver on our 2018 Nissan Pathfinder, and this is what our hitch is going to look like. Once we have it installed, it's going to have a really clean, almost factory look to it because the crosstube's going to be completely hidden behind the bumper, and all we're going to see is that receiver tube sticking out. So it's not going to distract from the looks of our Pathfinder and we're going to have pretty good ground clearance. Because again, that crosstube's going to be completely hidden behind the bumper. It is a class three hitch, which means it's going to give us that two inch by two inch receiver tube opening.

We are on the drivers side, the outboard side of the frame, and you can see there is a factory tow hook here. There is one of these on each side of the vehicle. The hitch is actually going to replace these tow hooks, so if you want to remove them - the bolts - they are holding the tow hook in place, and they need to be removed and come down. And clamped in here is also a fourth weld nut that we are going to use as the mounting location as well. It is toward the rear of the frame you will be able to see it once we get the tow hook removed. As you can also see, the small control box here on the drivers side is going to be in the way of me removing the bolts from the side of the frame and getting the hitch up into place. So we want to lower this down and out of the way as well. There are three bolts holding the box in place - one here on the outboard side, one here at the rear, and one here on the inboard side as well. So we are going to ahead and remove that first, and then remove the tow hooks from both sides of the vehicle. more
