Question:

asked by: Brad P
Expert Reply:
I recommend the Curt Class III Max Frame Receiver Hitch part # CU29FR for the 2020 Chevrolet Traverse because of its concealed cross tube design it provides the best ground clearance compared to the other options. The concealed cross tube design sits up higher since the receiver tube sticks out fascia instead of hanging below the bumper. The receiver tube will be the only portion of the hitch vehicle once it's installed. This hitch also allows you to re-install the panel that hides the hitch completely when you are not towing. I have attached an installation video and photos for your reference.
For the wiring, I recommend Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector part # 118287 which will give you a 7-Way plug on the back of the Traverse to tow a trailer with brakes.
