Parts Needed to Tow Trailer with 2008 BMW X3

First you will need to start with a trailer hitch confirmed to fit your 2008 BMW X3. For that you would want the Curt # 13573 which is a confirmed fit and would work 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 the part # 119250KIT is a confirmed fit that will work well too.
