For your 2005 Nissan Armada let's first start with a trailer hitch. For that the Curt hitch part # 13188 would be a great option confirmed to fit. I attached an install video for this as well.
For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # C59496 which is a universal kit that has been test fit on your vehicle and determined to work well.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in 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.
