Question:

Hello sir I have a 2014 GMC Acadia without the tow package. Im looking for a complete bolt on setup with wiring. I would also like to see if any hitches would allow the stock hitch fascia to be installed seeing how i will not be towing often. Thanks for your time

First let's start with a hitch for your 2014 GMC Acadia. For that you will want the Draw-Tite part # 75528. There are no hitch options for your vehicle that will allow it to keep the rear fascia, but realistically that shouldn't be a problem since it's main purpose is only for appearance purposes. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

Since 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.

For trailer wiring you would want the Curt harness part # C56245.
