NOTES:
A weight-distributing hitch system is recommended for Armada, Frontier, and
Pathfinder vehicles if you plan to tow trailers with a maximum weight over 5,000 lbs.
You can tow a trailer with a lower rating than the hitch. For example, a Class IV hitch
can tow a Class II trailer.
*
Includes matched receiver, ball mount, and hitch ball.
**
Towing capability of the vehicle may be less than the maximum towing rating of the equipment. See
TOWING CAPACITIES earlier in this section or refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for detailed
information regarding the towing capacity of your specific vehicle.
†
DO NOT tow a trailer with 370Z (Coupe and Roadster), cube, GT-R, or Versa.
