Question:
What trailer hitch do you recommend for a 2021 chevrolet traverse
asked by: John D
Expert Reply:
For a 2021 Chevy Traverse we have two trailer hitch receivers, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56YR and the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU29FR. Both have the same maximum gross trailer weight capacity of 5,000lbs and maximum tongue weight capacity of 750lbs and are rated for use with a weight distribution hitch. They both are both bolt-on installations and the Curt hitch has a black powder coat and the etrailer has a matte black finish, for superior rust protection.
Both of these hitches have great ground clearance and are made in the USA. I have attached install videos of each to help you make a choice.
I also recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector # 118287 to quickly and easily install a 7-way connector for your trailer to plug into. This harness will plug right into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located just beneath your vehicle, on the driver's side.
