Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2013 Chevy Captiva Sport
Question:
I just want to know if a tow hitch from a 2012 chevy equinox would fit on a 2013 chevy captiva

For your 2013 Chevy Captiva you would want the Curt Hitch part # 13594 as it has been confirmed as a fit. A hitch from a 2012 Chevy Equinox would not fit this vehicle so I cannot recommend you attempt to install it there.
I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
If 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 part # C56257.
