Nissan Armada Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)
A hitch turns your Armada into the one that takes a bike rack, a cargo carrier, a utility trailer or a small boat. CURT builds one hitch for the Nissan Armada from 2005 to 2015, Class 3, rated 6,000 lb, from $325.15 CAD with free shipping anywhere in Canada.
Your year decides the part. Find it in the table, open the year page for the exact hitch, price and wiring, and you're done in a few minutes.

CURT parts for the Nissan Armada
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and the wiring guide walks you through four-flat and seven-way for the Armada.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver: CURT 45836 ($41.70 CAD) drops straight into a 2-inch receiver. Pick the drop or rise that keeps the trailer level, and match the ball to the coupler. The ball mount guide covers both in two minutes.
Canadian winters eat hitch hardware. Salt and brine get into the receiver and the trailer plug, so a smear of grease on the pin, a cap on the receiver and a rinse under the bumper in spring keep a CURT hitch looking new for years. The rust and salt care guide has the full routine.
Nissan Armada hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Nissan Armada?
It depends on the year. CURT 13188 covers 2005 through 2015, a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver rated to 6,000 lb. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on an Armada with this hitch?
Yes. The 2-inch receiver takes any 2-inch rack, and a loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (600 lb on CURT 13188), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is well inside the limit.
Can I install the hitch myself?
Most owners do. CURT rates CURT 13188 a novice install, about 30 minutes with hand tools and a jack. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can an Armada tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated to 6,000 lb, but the Armada's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
