Recommendation on a 2 Inch Hitch for an Infiniti QX60 AWD
Question:
Looking for the right 2 inch hitch and wiring kit for a 2015 Infiniti QX60 AWD

Expert Reply:
We have two 2" hitches that will fit your 2015 Infiniti QX60 AWD. Of the two hitches, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class IV Hitch, # 76031, over the Curt Class III Hitch, # C13126.
The Draw-Tite Hitch has a higher towing capacity than the Curt hitch and our installers find the Draw-Tite hitch easier to install.
The Draw-Tite hitch is custom-fit for your vehicle and will attach to your Infiniti's frame using already existing bolt holes. No drilling into the frame will be required.
If towing a trailer is an option for you, then you will need a wiring harness to connect to your trailer's lights. If you do not have the factory tow package, then you will need # 118670. If you have the factory tow package, then you will need # 118273. Both wiring harnesses will plug in to existing wire plugs located on your vehicle. No cutting or splicing of wires will be need to install. You will need to add relays to the system, but the instructions will explain where to install the relays on your vehicle.
I also recommend the use of dielectric grease, # LT37534, when making the electrical connections with the wiring harness plugs. The grease will help seal out contaminants and prevents electrical shorts.
I have included articles that will help you answer any additional questions. One of the articles will show you how to determine what type of ball mount you might need for towing.
