Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2016 Chevy Equinox
Question:
I need a hitch for a 2016 Chevy Equinox
asked by: Joe
Expert Reply:
The etrailer hitch part # e98865 has been confirmed for your 2016 Chevy Equinox as a fit so I would recommend it for you.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
