Nissan Xterra Rear Bumper Upgrade - Building A Better Xterra
Since our vehicle came with the factory tow package, we have the option of installing the trailer plug mount that comes with the bumper. Shrockworks' plug mount plate goes under the lip of the bumper, with the bulk of the plug being completely out of harm's way.
With the Hi-Lift jack in place, I swung out the carrier to be sure I could still open the rear hatch completely. The rear door opened with ease, making no contact with the jack. According to the Shrockworks instructions, the use of a Hi-Lift Jack Handle Isolator may not be possible due to the tight fit of the bumper, but as you can see in our installation, as long as we kept the isolator low it fit without a problem. The bumper also has an integrated 2-inch receiver hitch with safety-chain attachments to cover all of your towing needs. It has a Class III tow rating of 5,000 pounds.
