Question:

Hi. I'm looking at the Curt Trailer Hitch C13309 for my 2019 Pathfinder. I like the way the crosstube is hidden behind the bumper, however I'm wondering how I would mount a 7-Way. Had attached a bracket to the hitch in the past but I suppose that's not really an option with this kind of design. Suggestions? Thanks!

Expert Reply:

With the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13309 installed on your 2019 Nissan Pathfinder, which as you mentioned features a hidden crosstube that stays tucked behind the rear bumper, you will just need to mount the 7-Way bracket directly to the bumper fascia using something like the Pollak # PK12711U.

If you'd rather not bolt anything directly into the fascia, another good option is with the Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58000. This will attach directly to the hitch receiver on the Curt Trailer Hitch and provide you with a great mounting point for a 7-Way and 4-Way connector. I have attached a short video review below so you can see exactly how it works.
