Expert Reply:

You will need to select the correct Equal-i-zer weight distribution hitch based on the tongue weight and total trailer weight for your 17B trailer. If you can provide me with some more details such as the year and manufacturer I can help determine which will be the best otherwise you will want to select one from the list below.

200-600lbs Tongue Weight, Trailer Up to 6,000lbs # EQ37060ET
600-1,000lbs Tongue Weight, Trailer Up to 10,000lbs # EQ37100ET

Also if you can provide me with the receiver height on your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and height of your trailer coupler I can verify if you will need a different shank for the height difference. Otherwise you can select one from the list below. The stock shank provides up to a 3" drop.

1/4" to 4" of Drop # EQ90-02-4200
2-1/4" to 6" of Drop # EQ90-02-4300
5-1/4" to 9" of Drop # EQ90-02-4400
8-1/4" to 12" of Drop # EQ44FR
