These dependable custom hitches are manufactured for 2007-2023 Nissan Altima, 2009-2022 Nissan Maxima and attach to your vehicle?s frame or bumper for a sleek, clean appearance. Each hitch also has a 1-1/4 inch square receiver tube opening so you can easily attach accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, or a utility trailer. DRAW-TITE Class 1 custom trailer hitches come complete with all the mounting hardware needed for installation and are backed by a nationwide lifetime limited warranty. So, whether you are headed out to the campground and need a place for the cooler, taking the bikes to hit the trails in the park, or you are tackling a DIY project (maybe some landscaping or a home repair), choose DRAW-TITE and travel with confidence knowing your setup is connected with the security only DRAW-TITE can provide. DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch.
Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

This hitch (part numbers 60873, 24796, 77168) is designed for Nissan Altima and Nissan Maxima models from 2007 and later. The installation method varies by year: 2007–2011 models disconnect the exhaust at the flange, while 2012 and later models disconnect at the lap joint. Confirm your vehicle year matches before purchasing.
The maximum gross trailer weight is 2000 LB (908 kg), and the maximum tongue weight is 200 LB (90.8 kg). Do not exceed the lower of the towing vehicle manufacturer's rating or these limits.
You will need wrenches in sizes 11/16", 5/8", and 16 mm, a 7/16" drill bit, a torque wrench (to tighten fasteners to 50 LB-FT), and sealant. A center punch is also needed to mark hole locations.
The hitch includes 4 carriage bolts (7/16-14 X 1.50 GR5), 4 nuts (7/16-14), and 4 lock washers. These fasteners are tightened to 50 LB-FT. A separate fastener kit (24796F) is available if additional fasteners are needed.
Yes, drilling is required. You must drill two 7/16" holes through the trunk pan on each side (4 holes total) at center-punched locations. The manual specifies that you should check hole alignment under the vehicle and remove burrs after drilling. Do not use a torch to cut holes.
Yes, the heat shield must be gently bent toward the frame rail during installation to expose the area between the frame rail and wheel well (Step 4). After the hitch is installed and fastened, the heat shield is gently bent back into position (Step 10). The manual does not indicate whether this bending causes permanent deformation.
Yes, the exhaust must be disconnected. The method depends on your vehicle year: 2007–2011 models disconnect at the flange on both sides, while 2012 and later models disconnect at the lap joint on both sides. Keep all fasteners for reassembly. The exhaust is then pushed toward the rear and off the rubber isolator.
1. Mark and center-punch the two hole locations on each side using the hitch as a template. 2. Lower the hitch and drill 7/16" holes through the trunk pan. 3. Position the plate over the holes inside the trunk and insert carriage bolts through the plate and trunk pan. 4. Raise the hitch over the carriage bolts and install lock washers and hex nuts. 5. Tighten all 7/16-14 GR5 fasteners to 50 LB-FT using a torque wrench.
The hitch should be raised into position between the frame rails and the spare tire wheel well, with the rear edge of the side bracket aligned flush against the bulkhead. Be careful not to scratch the fascia during positioning. Check the hitch location on the vehicle before marking and drilling holes.
No. The manual explicitly states not to install fasteners over carpet. Position the plate over the holes inside the trunk on the bare trunk pan before inserting the carriage bolts.
All 7/16-14 GR5 fasteners must be tightened to 50 LB-FT (68 N·M) using a torque wrench. This applies to all four carriage bolts with their corresponding lock washers and nuts.
The holes must be 7/16" in diameter. Two holes are drilled on each side of the vehicle (4 holes total) through the trunk pan at the center-punched locations marked using the hitch as a template.
The drawbar must be used in the RISE position only. Do not use it in any other position.
Observe safety precautions when working beneath the vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes. A damaged hitch or ball must be removed and replaced immediately.
After installation, apply sealant at the bolt attachments inside the spare tire well to prevent water and exhaust fumes from entering the vehicle interior. Replace the carpeting, fiber board, and storage bin tray (if present). Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened.

The T-One® T-Connector is a vehicle-mounted wiring harness that provides a connection point for towing equipment. It taps into the vehicle's taillight wiring on both driver and passenger sides and includes a black box module that houses the electrical connections. The connector allows you to attach a trailer or towing equipment without modifying the vehicle's factory wiring.
Yes, the T-One® T-Connector (part number 118731-037) is designed for the Nissan Altima. The manual covers installation on this vehicle model.
You will need: Trim Panel Remover, 10mm Socket & Ratchet or 10mm Wrench, Drill with 3/32" Drill Bit, 1/4" Socket, Wire Crimpers, Wire Cutters, Philips Head Screwdriver, and Test-probe.
The kit includes: two T-One® T-Connector ends (one with yellow wire for driver side, one with green wire for passenger side), a black box module, a white ground wire with eyelet and screw, a 15 amp fuse in a yellow fuse holder, yellow butt connectors, cable ties, and a 4-Flat connector for storage in the trunk when not in use.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's Negative (-) battery cable before connecting the fuse holder to the Positive (+) battery terminal. Reconnect the negative cable only after the fuse holder connection is complete and the 15 amp fuse is installed.
You must open the trunk, temporarily remove the rear threshold plate, and partially remove the felt trunk liner behind the taillights to access the taillight wiring harness on both driver and passenger sides.
Locate the taillight wiring harness on both sides of the vehicle. Separate the existing connector carefully without breaking the locking tabs. On the driver's side, insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock into place. Route the green wire end to the passenger side behind the panels and along the threshold, then repeat the insertion process. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area first, then secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
Drill a 3/32" hole for the white ground wire. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area before drilling, then secure the wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
The T-One® T-Connector uses a 15 amp fuse. The fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided with the kit and must be connected between the black 12 gauge wire and the vehicle's Positive (+) battery terminal.
From inside the vehicle, connect the black 12 gauge wire from the T-One® black box to the black wire from the vehicle using the supplied yellow butt connector. Route this wire either through a grommet and along the exterior frame, or follow the existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery. Avoid areas that may pinch or break the wire. At the battery, disconnect the Negative (-) cable first. Cut the fuse holder wire, attach the ring terminal to the vehicle's Positive (+) battery cable, and connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 gauge wire using the yellow butt connector. Install the 15 amp fuse and reconnect the Negative (-) battery cable.
The T-Connector has four main wires: yellow wire (driver side taillight connection), green wire (passenger side taillight connection), white wire (ground connection to vehicle frame), and black wire (power connection to vehicle battery through a 15 amp fuse). The yellow and green wires tap into the existing taillight harness. The white wire is grounded to the vehicle frame using an eyelet and screw. The black wire connects to the vehicle's Positive (+) battery terminal through the fuse holder.
Yes, you can route the black 12 gauge wire through a grommet and along the exterior frame. However, you must be careful to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any other points that may pinch or break the wire. Alternatively, you can follow the existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery.
Mount the T-One® T-Connector's black box module on a flat surface in an out-of-the-way place to prevent damage or rattling. The location should not interfere with vehicle operation or access.
Secure the remainder of the T-One® T-Connector harness with the cable ties provided to prevent damage or rattling. Be careful to avoid any areas that would pinch, cut, or melt the wire. After securing the harness, replace the carpet and any other clips or panels that were removed during installation, being careful not to cut or pinch the wires.
All connections must be complete for the T-One® T-Connector to function properly. Test and verify the installation with a test light or trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition.
Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating (including in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the product. The manual does not specify the product's own amperage rating; refer to the product label or contact the manufacturer for this information.
Always wear safety glasses and use all safety precautions during installation. Before drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
