The installation of a trailer hitch on your Jeep Liberty is very simple. It requires no drilling and only requires a torque wrench when tightening the fasteners. If you wish to have it installed by someone else, any garage should be able to take care of that for you.

The trailer hitch I recommend is the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # 13245. This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening. You can check out the attached installation video for this hitch which shows how simple it really is to install.

Since you plan on doing 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 you do not have trailer wiring on your Liberty I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # 118554. I have attached a link to an installation video for this harness on a Liberty.
