What Size Bolts are Used to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 1999 Nissan Pathfinder

You should be able to find out the exact bolts needed for installing a trailer hitch on your 1999 Nissan Pathfinder by looking at the installation instructions.

If you take a look at the installation instructions for the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13088, which is a fit for your Pathfinder, you can see that Draw-Tite specifies that M12 x 1.25 x 35mm CL810.39 size bolts be used. Although all of our trailer hitches that fit your Pathfinder use this size bolt for installation, I recommend double checking your instructions just to make sure.

If you have a Draw-Tite or Curt trailer hitch that you are wanting to install on your Pathfinder you can actually order replacement hardware on our site with part # RHK. Since it is recommended to use new hardware for a hitch install (since hardware is made to be torqued down only once) we have this part setup for those who are installing a trailer hitch for the second time.
