I hope I'm barking up the right tree
I have never owned a TT before, although in a previous life I pulled a two-horse trailer all over the Northeast. I was young and carefree back then, never gave towing much thought - just hitch and go....

I find that interesting.
My '06 Frontier is a 4.0 V6, 4WD, six speed manual. I bought it new. The truck has 134K miles on it. 50K miles of towing either the camper or two different horse triailers. Original clutch. Still works fine.
I found out months later that Nissan had two different clutches. The one in mine was a "dual clutch". Wow what a piece of junk.
Don't get me wrong I have driven Nissan pick ups exclusively since 1983. (with the exclusion of one Xterra) All were manual transmissions and I towed smaller trailers with all of them. You will notice I am STILL a Nissan lover (Titan).
I loved the Frontier it was just that **** clutch. I replaced it once and I could smell it going again. That was it, I had to move on.
