2011 - Trailer Hitch

Discussion of Infiniti's amazing (and underrated) sport-luxury crossovers, the EX35 and EX37. For 2014, the EX series will be renamed QX50, in line with Ininfiit's new naming conventions.

Hey,

I just picked up my 2011 EX on Saturday, love it already, even while baby'ing for the first 1000kms.
I have tried looking for posts on this forum and other resources on the net to see if there is an actual hitch for the 2011s. The dealership says no and so does the common aftermarket places. One recommended that I try the 2010 hitch if there was no frame changes between the 2010 and 2011s. I asked my dealer and he said that he isn't aware of anything. Wondering if any other 2011'ers have had luck with a hitch. (i am only using it to carry my bikes)

Thanks!
Jeff

Curt Mfg. Makes one for the Ex35. I have a 2011 AWD journey and had a Curt class 1 hitch installed that uses a 1.25" receiver. I got it from RacknRoad ($147 plus install labor) and they installed it. It does not extend below the tailpipes.

Thanks Widman. Excuse my ignorance, not sure what you mean by it does not extend below the tail pipes? are you able to post a pic?!?! And would you know the part number?

thanks again!

The item from Curt is #11510 (they state it will fit up to a 2009, but it will fit the 2011). Here is the link to their web site: http://www.curtmfg.com/index.cfm?event=hitch
I was saying that the hitch, when mounted, is the same distance to the ground as is the dual exhaust pipe ends, in case clearance is a concern.
