For your 2017 Chevy Traverse without the tow package the hitch I would recommend is the Draw Tite hitch part # 75528 as it has a great price, is made by a quality manufacturer, and has great towing capacities. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

For trailer wiring you then would want the Tekonsha kit part # 118270 which is a confirmed fit. I also attached an install video for this 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.
