Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Nissan Frontier (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 5,000 lbs. GTW and 500 lbs. TW. It is also compatible with a weight distribution hitch for level towing and a rating of 6,000 lbs. WD and 600 lbs. WDTW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
Trailer hitch weight ratings are limited to vehicle manufacturer's stated capacities
Not compatible for use with vertical hanging bicycles (bike racks that require the bicycles to be hung / mounted vertically)
Includes installation hardware

However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.

No. The manual explicitly states 'NO DRILLING REQUIRED'. The hitch uses existing frame holes on your Nissan Frontier, so no drilling, cutting, or frame modification is necessary.
No drilling required. The hitch uses existing frame holes.
The hitch includes: two 1/2-13 UNC hex head cap screws, 1-1/2 inches long, grade 8 (part 10-10334); four 7/16-14 UNC hex head cap screws, 1-1/4 inches long, grade 8 (part 10-10425); two 1/2-inch split-contact washers (part 30-00149); four 7/16-inch split-contact washers (part 30-00163); and two nut plate weldments (part CM-NP2W).
The manual does not specify which tools are required. You will need sockets or wrenches to fit 1/2-inch and 7/16-inch fasteners, and a torque wrench to tighten them to the specified values (59 lb.-ft. for 7/16-inch fasteners and 110 lb.-ft. for 1/2-inch fasteners). Contact Curt Manufacturing or your installer for a complete tool list.
1. Raise the hitch into position at the end of the vehicle frame. 2. Install the fasteners as shown in the diagram (two 1/2-inch hex head cap screws with washers, and four 7/16-inch hex head cap screws with washers, using the two nut plate weldments). 3. Torque all 7/16-inch fasteners to 59 lb.-ft. and all 1/2-inch fasteners to 110 lb.-ft. The hitch uses existing frame holes, so no drilling is required.
Raise the hitch into position at the frame end, install fasteners using existing holes, then torque 7/16-inch fasteners to 59 lb.-ft. and 1/2-inch fasteners to 110 lb.-ft.
All 1/2-inch fasteners (hex head cap screws) must be torqued to 110 lb.-ft.
7/16-inch fasteners: 59 lb.-ft. 1/2-inch fasteners: 110 lb.-ft.
All 7/16-inch fasteners (hex head cap screws) must be torqued to 59 lb.-ft.
Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Although the hitch is rated for 5000 lbs. trailer weight and 500 lbs. tongue weight in weight-carrying mode (or 6000 lbs. trailer and 600 lbs. tongue in weight-distribution mode), your Nissan Frontier's factory towing limit may be lower. Always follow your vehicle manufacturer's specifications.
Periodically check the hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify an interval, so inspect before each towing trip and at regular service intervals. Retighten any loose fasteners to the original torque values (59 lb.-ft. for 7/16-inch fasteners and 110 lb.-ft. for 1/2-inch fasteners).
