How Does a Trailer Hitch Install on a 2013 Nissan Juke FWD
Updated 10/24/2016 | Published 10/21/2016
Question:
Bonjour, My Juke does not have the welded nuts on the inside of the frame for the M10 and M12 bolts...do u have any suggestions of other way of attaching this hitch? I had an AWD 2011 that had the nuts welded and installed the appropriate hitch for my bike rack but low and behold I checked the 2013 Juke FWD before I ordered a hitch and could not find any welded nuts. The holes are there but no nuts..??

The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2013 Nissan Juke FWD is # 24892. Installation of this hitch is different than for the one on your 2011 Juke. Basically it does not use any weld nuts in the vehicle frame. None of the hitches for the 2013 FWD do. Bolts have to be ran through the frame and attached to the hitch that way (on one side) and to a tie down loop (on the passenger's side). I have included a link to the installation instructions for you so you can see the installation procedure.
