Draw-Tite Tested Tough
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

Video Transcript for Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Nissan Altima - Draw-Tite
Speaker 1: Today on this 2017 Nissan Altima you'll be having a look at, and being shown how to install, the Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number: 24796. Here's what our hitch looks like installed. One nice thing about this hitch is that it's very well tucked up underneath our vehicle, and behind the vehicle, so you don't have to worry about running your shin into it or having it stick out past the bumper causing an obstruction. It's a nice clean look on our Altima. On the side of our receiver you'll find our industry standard 1/2" diameter hitch pin hole for securing any of our hitch-mounted accessories. Welded onto the bottom of our receiver is our rolled steel tubular design safety chain loop, which is easy to hook onto for most sized chains.
This hitch features a 200 pound max tongue weight rating, which is the amount forcing down, and a 2,000 pound max gross trailer weight rating, which is the amount it's rated to pull. You'll want to consult with the owner's manual of your Altima and not exceed the limits of the hitch or the vehicle itself when towing. Just go by whatever number is lowest.Now for a few measurements to better assist you in choosing any hitch-mounted accessory you may need, such as a bike rack or a cargo carrier. You're looking at about 9-1/2" from the ground to the top of the 1-1/4" receiver opening, and about 7" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the rearmost part of the back bumper. Now that we've gone over some features, we'll show you how to get it installed.To begin our install, we'll open up our trunk.
We've already gone ahead and removed all of our floor coverings so we don't drill into them. You can leave your spare tire in position. All right. Now we need to remove our mufflers on both sides of the vehicle. We'll find a clamp right here, which holds it to our pipe.
It's a 15mm nut. We'll loosen these nuts. Now we'll unbolt this exhaust hanger right where our mufflers meet our Y-pipe. There are two 12mm bolts. Now we'll grab our mufflers and wiggle them off our Y-pipe.
Okay. Once we have it disconnected off our Y-pipe, we can take our muffler and slide it towards the rear of the vehicle, and it will come off.Okay, now with an extra set of hands, raise the hitch up and slide it all the way back against the bulkhead, and we'll mark our holes with a paint marker. And with them marked, we'll take it down. Okay. With our holes marked, we'll now take a small drill bit and drill a pilot hole right through the middle of them. You can see where our pilot holes came up on the inside of our trunk now. It's easier to drill going down so that's what we're going to do. We'll enlarge it to the final size as indicated in the instructions. I'm using a step bit for this. Now we'll take some RTV silicone, which we have available on our website, go around the holes. This will help any exhaust fumes or moisture getting inside the vehicle. We'll take our plate, center it over the holes. We'll even put more silicone around the holes there, and we'll drop down our carriage bolts. And we'll do the same for the other side.Here's a quick tech tip for you. Before we raise the hitch into position, it's a good idea to put a heavy object over the top of your carriage bolts. This'll prevent them from being pushed back inside the vehicle when you're raising the hitch onto the bolts. Now, with an extra set of hands, we'll raise the hitch into position and push it onto our carriage bolts. And to make it easier, I just have a 17mm socket on one of the nuts right now, and I'll just get one of the nuts started to help hold it in position because we need to have a lock washer underneath the nut. Put another nut in the socket, hold a lock washer in place with my other hand, and then start the nut. Once I have that one in I can remove the nut on the other one and put the lock washer underneath.Okay, now that we have both of our nuts in place with lock washers underneath, we'll snug them down. With all of our hardware snugged down, we'll now torque it to the amount specified in the instructions. Okay, with our hitch torqued down and in place, we'll now reinstall our exhaust. We want to make sure we put all of our stuff back in place, and we're ready to hit the road.And that completes your look at, and being shown how to install, the Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number: 24796, on this 2017 Nissan Altima.

The trailer hook-up works great. I used it to haul a trailer from Ohio to N.M. I also used it to haul a trailer from Ohio to Florida. The hitch preformed like a dream. I have it on my 2010 Nissan Altima . 542697

I wanted to be able to tow a light trailer and this hitch receiver is just perfect for that. It's sturdy and reliable. The instructions for installing were right on. the only surprise was that I needed to borrow a pipe expander for putting the mufflers back on, but it all went very well. I'm very happy with it. 489112

This is a very high quality product and well built. Installation was a challenge. I do a lot of DYI projects, but this was a challenge. You need some way to keep it place while installing it. It is very heavy. I am also not sure that removal of the heat shields is a great idea. I bent mine out of the way, but bending them back was a challenge. If you have the means to install this yourself, it is a great product, but if you don't, you may want to find someone to install it for you. I would recommend this https://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Adapters/Brophy/HT5R.html if you want to get some height. I install this into an 2014 Altima 3.5. 502252

I ordered this hitch because it said that the drawbar and pin were included in the description. When it showed up there wasn't a drawbar or pin in the box. I emailed etrailer and got a response within just a few minutes. I figured that it was going to be the usual "prove that it's missing" hassle that other stores have had me go through in the past with filing a report with the company that shipped it and endless emails that eventually lead you to give up. I was pleasantly surprised when they asked me if the box was damaged and if I was sure that the drawbar wasn't in the box then simply sent one out to replace the missing one. A few days later and the drawbar showed up in my mailbox, no hassles or any hoops to jump through. From now on, whenever I need another hitch or any other thing they have on their website this will be the place I go to. Thank you etrailer for not putting me through the ringer. 239075

The hitch was received quickly, and near perfect condition ( a bit of paint is scraped off of sharp corners). The boxes have a hard time containing a hitch, and small holes are created from handling, then paint is worn off of the portion that protrudes. A bit of touch-up & It looks very nice. Install was no problem, probably about 40 minutes total. Looks very proper . 325053

This is the third trailer hitch I have purchased from Etrailer.com. Each one has arrived in a very timely manner with no missing parts and nothing damaged. Prior to my purchases I have viewed the installation videos which were very helpful. The written installation instructions that accompanied each trailer hitch were complete and easy to understand. The wiring harnesses were a perfect match to each vehicle. 105214

The hitch and wiring harness have worked without fault. I am quite happy with the product a year later.

1 year after purchase, I am mostly happy with this receiver. It was a pain to install, mainly due to the design of my 2011 Altima, but I knew that going in thanks to the instructions and videos on etrailer. My only hesitation to give it 5 stars is the surface rust inside the receiver tube. I'm not sure how, but it seems like they could figure out a way to make that look better for longer. However, the hitch has worked perfectly in the light towing (~600lb) I do. 524293
Comments
Unfortunately, due to the metal on metal contact that the finish on the interior of the receiver tube experiences, theres really not much that could be done to prevent the finish from being abraded. A thin coat of grease on the shank of the ballmount or hitch mounted accessory will be the best bet to provide some protection.

Service from etrailer and product quality are both great! Installed easily, a perfect fit on the car, very happy. My only issue is the damage that happened in shipping. The hitch had no padding or packing materials in the box to secure the hitch inside the box. As a result it slid freely inside the box punching holes through the cardboard and chipping paint off. These impacts also loosened the parts inside scratching up the bar as seen in my pictures near where I installed the trailer light plug. A little bubble wrap, wadded paper, or foam could have prevented the damage completely. The cardboard box was not dented, other then the holes punched from the inside out by the hitch parts as they slid and slammed into the sides of the box. 66882

Product was as described. I had it installed on a 2014 Maxima at a body shop for about one hour of work. Works well except it is tougher to access the hitch pin than my Durango. Not surprising though considering the difference in the vehicles. Switched to a socket to tighten my Thule bike rack hitch pin. Well worth the money. 628667

The hitch fit my 2012 Altima perfectly and was a breeze to install on my own. It works great with my bikerack. The only issue I had was removing my muflers at the clamps which were rusted tight. I ended up taking the car to a shop to heat and remove them for me. I wasn’t able to heat them enough outside when it was windy and below freezing. 585279

I installed the draw tite hitch on my 2015 Nissan Altama. Installation was fairly simple. You do have to remove both mufflers, I also removed the muffler heat shields. The instructions say to carefully bend them out of the way but for me drilling out the rivets and removing them made installation easier. I did reinstall them with rivets I had. Also when I got the hitch it was missing the steel plates that go in the trunk one call to customer service and the parts where expedited to me. Very happy with product and e-trailers customer service. 520828

Hi there people. I don't usually write reviews but I felt they deserved one. I ordered a 1 1/4 hitch for my car.. I wasn't very hopefull this transaction would go smoothly. Most of the time it's a pain in the ass. I am happy to say it was one of the best customer service I have had in a long time. They followed up with me until I received the hitch. I have already told my family/friends about my wonderful experience. I will always tell people about how awesome I was treated. I am a very hard person to please. So they made a break through with me. Until next time...... 487446

Excellent hitch receiver fit and function for 2014 Nissan Altima. Very solid. Chose this unit because it does not require a support strap when using a bike rack. They are not kidding with 9/10 for installation difficulty. This due to vehicle design, not product. Both mufflers need to be removed (remove and replace took the longest time). Deep socket is required for muffler removal and at least 10" ratchet extension required to tighten nuts to secure product. Estimated time is accurate at about 90 minutes. 413879

A good product! This is the second hitch I have installed using etrailer and it went as well as the first. Not being a super skilled Tech it took longer than expected, but for me it was a project that needed to be done, and I enjoy a good project when it comes together, no matter if it took a little longer due to an average person's tool inventory and simple jack stands and floor jacks. The instruction videos are the best I have seen as of yet. If you enjoy working with your hands, I recommend etrailer products! 412852

Do you have a question about this Trailer Hitch?
- Cargo Transport Options for 2018 Nissan Altima with Moon Roof
- If maximum cargo weight capacity is the goal then the way to go is to install a hitch # 24796 and to use a hitch-mount cargo carrier like one of those shown on the linked page, such as # C18110. The Class I hitch above has a 200-lb tongue weight rating, tongue weight being downward force on the hitch. So in actual pounds, this means that once you deduct the carrier's own 30-lb weight from that hitch capacity you still end up with a 170-pound maximum cargo weight. This is far more than your...

- As far as quality, all of the hitches for the 2013 Nissan Altima sedan are on par with each other. The Draw-Tite hitches (# 24796) undergoes additional voluntary testing procedures that other hitches do not. But both hitches, including Curt hitch # 11352, are built to meet or exceed required industry strength standards.

- For the 2016 Nissan Altima there are only Class I hitches with 1-1/4 inch receivers such as # 24796 (which I recommend over the Curt hitch because Curt requires a stabilization strap # 18050 when using the hitch for a bike rack or cargo carrier and Draw-Tite does not).
In order to use a 2 inch accessory with a Class I hitch you will need adapter # HTAD which is compatible with a Class I hitch.
Keep in mind that the use of an adapter reduces the tongue weight capacity of the trailer...
view full answer... - Recommendation for a Trailer Hitch for a 2015 Nissan Altima
- I have a trailer hitch that will fit your 2015 Nissan Altima. I recommend the Draw-Tite Sport Frame Hitch # 24796. The Draw-Tite hitch is custom-fit for your Altima like the other brands hitches we carry, but the Draw-Tite hitch will not need the extra stabilization strap the other hitches require when using a non-tow-able accessory, like a bike rack.
The Draw-Tite hitch is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. Unfortunately, there are no 2 inch trailer hitches available...

- For your 2017 Nissan Altima sedan you can use Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24796. This is a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver.
If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch. I have linked the Class I compatible 2-bike racks and cargo carriers for you.

- I do have some hitch options available for your 2010 Nissan Altima that do not require the removal of the heat shields, but the CURT trailer hitch # 11352, does require the heat shields to be removed.
The Draw-Tite hitch # 24796 will allow you to retain the heat shields on your 2010 Nissan Altima. It is a Class I 1-1/4 model, and is has the same tongue weight and towing capacity of the CURT hitch # 11352 that you selected.
To complete your towing setup, you will need the following...

- A Nissan Altima is compatible with a Class I hitch, which has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. The 300 lb chair and lift you mention would seriously overload the hitch, which would damage the hitch and result in the loss of the carrier and the power chair during transport, which would be bad.
Your best bet would be to use a different tow vehicle, one that's capable of using a Class III hitch that has a tongue weight capacity of at least 350 lbs.

view full answer... - Suggestions for the Best Hitch To Carry 2 Bikes on a 2009 Nissan Altima Hybrid Sedan
- I recommend using the Curt Class I Trailer Hitch, item # 11352, over the Draw-Tite Class I Sportframe Trailer Hitch, item # 24796, on the 2009 Nissan Altima Hybrid, because the Curt hitch uses existing holes in the vehicles frame rail to install the hitch and does not require drilling into the bottom of the vehicles trunk pan. With the Curt hitch, drilling is required but you do not have to drill into the inside of the vehicle trunk which would leave the potential for water to enter into...

- The Hidden Hitch # 60873 (no longer available) and the Draw-Tite # 24796 are identical. They are both manufactured by the same parent company, Cequent Performance Products. Their weight bearing capabilities and installation procedure are identical. For towing, you would also need a ball mount, trailer connector, part # 118470 and a 1-7/8 inch ( # 19256) or 2 inch ( # 19258) trailer ball.
According to my research, the 2009 Maxima has a rather modest 1000 lb towing/100 lb tongue weight...

- I just went out to our warehouse and installed the Curt Class II Ball Mount # C45015 into the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24796 and it fit perfectly. The Curt is 11-5/8 inches from the hitch pin hole to the hitch ball hole so it will work great for you.
For a 2 inch hitch ball use # 19258 and for a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256. Then for a pin and clip use # F-4.

- The only class of hitch available for a 2010 Nissan Altima is a Class I hitch like the Draw-Tite, # 24796. Class I hitches have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and a 200 pound or less tongue weight capacity. After checking the owner's manual for the 2010, it gives a tongue weight capacity of 100 pounds. You will always want to follow the weight limitations of the component with the lowest weight rating.
Towing capacity of a vehicle is determined by many factors including frame structure,...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch And Platform Bike Carrier For 2015 Nissan Altima
- The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2015 Altima is the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # 24796. I recommend this hitch because the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C11352 requires the use of a safety strap like part # 18050 when it is used with any non-trailer accessories. Many times it can be tough to find a place to attach the safety strap.
I have attached a link to an installation video for the # 24796 you can check out. As shown in the video the distance from the center...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2014 Nissan Maxima
- It looks like you are going to be drilling no matter which hitch you use. The Curt hitch, # C11352, attaches more to the frame which is why it requires removal of the heat shields. The hitch itself will act as a heat shield to dissipate heat.
The Draw-Tite hitch # 24796 does mount to the sturdier part of the spare tire well which requires drilling (which will be pretty easy to drill through, unlike a solid frame) but retains the heat shields. I have linked videos showing installations...

- Curt trailer hitch # C11357 is designed to fit the 2008 to 2013 Nissan Altima Coupe (2-door models). If you have a sedan (4-door) then I recommend hitch # 24796. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch.
If you go with a Curt hitch then Curt also says you have to use stabilization...

- I do have a hitch that will fit your 2008 Nissan Altima Coupe, but the hitch you selected, Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 24796, will not fit as it is designed for the Sedan model of the Altima.
For your Altima Coupe, you will need the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, part # 24801, which is also a Class I 1-1/4 inch hitch.

- The Draw-Tite Class I Sport Frame Receiver Hitch # 24796 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2018 Nissan Altima. For both this hitch and the Curt model that is also confirmed to fit, the installation process is relatively extensive. Installation will require that two 7/16 inch holes be drilled into the frame on each side of the vehicle (4 holes total). The muffler will also need to be temporarily removed but it will be re-installed once the hitch is in place.
