Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2015 Nissan Frontier

I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch # 13241 for your 2015 Nissan Frontier. I recommend this hitch because it is confirmed to fit your truck and we have test fitted this product on a 2015 Nissan Frontier. The maximum GTW for this hitch is 5,000 lbs. and the tongue weight capacity for this hitch is 500 lbs. However, you are limited by the GTW and TW of your truck which varies depending on what kind of 2015 Nissan Frontier you have. These weight capacities are listed in your owners manual for reference.

If you are planning on towing a trailer you might be interested in the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

To wire lights on your trailer, you will want the Curt T-One Harness # C56225.

I have attached an installation video of the Curt Hitch on a 2015 Nissan Frontier and the wiring harness installation on a 2010 Nissan Frontier which is the same process for your truck you may want to check out. You will also probably need to clean your welded nuts when installing the Curt Hitch, so I attached a help article on how to clean your welded nuts for a smooth installation.
