Dodge Nitro Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)

Shopping a trailer hitch for a Dodge Nitro in Canada? Start with the year on the door sticker, then open the CURT Class 3 card that lists that Nitro window before you borrow a Liberty-only story from the wrong shelf. We stock CURT 13334 as the dedicated Nitro Class 3 rear hitch for listed 2007 through 2012 years, with CURT 56334 as the matching Nitro and Liberty four-flat when your years line up.

Built for Canadian Dodge Nitro owners and shops. Free shipping on CURT towing gear from Lots of Parts when the SKU is live on this store. New to hitch shopping? Start with the buying guide, how to choose a hitch, and what hitch class do I need. Prefer the full index? Open the towing guides hub.

Which CURT hitch fits your Dodge Nitro

Read the year on the door sticker first. CURT lists one dedicated Nitro Class 3 hitch on this shelf for the full 2007 through 2012 run we publish year landers for. The wiring card also lists Jeep Liberty years in the title — that is shared-platform language, not a reason to skip the Dodge Nitro year lander when Nitro is in fitment.

Parts-counter notes before you click buy

Topic What we tell shoppers
Dedicated Class 3 13334 is the Nitro-titled Class 3 hitch we stock for the listed years. Do not invent a Class 4 truck hitch for this unibody SUV.
Shared wiring title 56334 also lists Jeep Liberty. Use the Nitro year lander and the printed Nitro years on the card. Liberty keeps its own buyers guide.
Door sticker Hitch class is not the Dodge tow limit. Many Nitros are bike-rack or light-trailer tools only.
Receiver size Class 3 here means a two inch receiver tube. Match ball mounts and anti-rattle kits to that size.
Nameplate ended No post-2012 Nitro hitch lander on this store — production stopped.
Other Jeeps Patriot, Compass, and Liberty guides stay separate. Do not swap those SKUs onto a Nitro without reading the card.
