The Curt Trailer Hitch # C13195 for your 2019 Kia Sorento weighs in at just about 44 pounds while the Draw-Tite # 75908 is a bit lighter at 39 pounds.
Both feature identical 5,000 pound towing weight capacities but the Curt # C13195 does have a higher tongue weight limit of 750 pounds compared to 500 pounds for the Draw-Tite model. Because of this and the fact that it's made right here in the USA I recommend the Curt option between the two for your Sorento. view full answer...
The ground clearance and hitch pin hole to bumper measurements you referenced seeing on another answer page for the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75908 were taken with the hitch installed on the 2017 model Kia Sorento. The slight changes on your 2019 model Sorento cause these measurements to differ with the same hitch mounted. Other variables such as tire size, rear cargo, etc can change these measurements a bit as well even within the same model year so it's important to... view full answer...
The base plate to top of receiver height of the # LC429756 Lippert Jack-It bike rack is 34-1/2 inches, as shown in the provided diagram, so unfortunately, it sounds like the rack wouldn't be a good choice for you.
Instead, I'd recommend using something like the Swagman Traveler, part # S64663 in conjunction with the Stromberg Carlson # CC-275 Bike Bunk. The bike bunk is easily removable from the receivers that bolt to your trailer A-frame, so you'll be able to use the tip out bunk with... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13195 will work with your 2020 Kia Sorento but the wiring harness item # TK24FR will not because you do not have the towing package. Yours has different connectors than the Sorento's with the towing package.
To install a 7-Way harness on your 2020 Kia Sorento without the towing package, you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they don't make just one that'll do the job.
The first harness you'll need is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness... view full answer...
In regards to the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Locking, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit part # AM3400, the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole (closest to end of shank) to the backside of the vertical upright is 4-3/8" which is actually shown in the attached video. view full answer...
From what I read in the owner's manual for the 2022 Kia Sorento, the maximum amount of tongue weight that can safely be applied to a hitch installed to the vehicle is 220 lbs.
For a hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # C34ER. If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a trailer wiring harness like part # TK26FR. For a ball mount, use # 2753 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball. view full answer...
This is a really good question. So we've asked our weight distribution manufacturers this and they have told us that the weight of the WD system like the # EQ37060ET does not count against the tongue weight of the hitch or vehicle because it essentially is becoming part of the hitch of the vehicle. view full answer...

To add a 2" hitch to your 2023 Kia Sorento, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C34ER. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube is completely concealed behind the rear bumper. This leaves only the 2" receiver exposed, which not only helps with ground clearance but it also looks better.
I have attached a couple of pictures below, along with an installation video, so you can see what this hitch will look like... view full answer...
To install a 7-Way harness on your, 2023 Kia Sorento without the towing package, you will need two separate wiring harnesses because they don't make just one that'll do the job.
The first harness you'll need is the Tekonsha T-OneVehicle Wiring Harness item # TK26FR. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Sorento's wiring harness, which is located behind the tail lights. This will provide you with a 4-flat connector.
The second harness you will need is the Universal Installation Kit... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13152 has a tow and tongue weight rating that is tested independently of the vehicle. The towing capacity of your vehicle is 3,500 lbs and tongue weight of 350 lbs max from the manufacturer. This will be the limiting capacity even though the hitch receiver is rated higher. view full answer...
The snap ring hole of the Pro Series Round, Snap-Ring Swivel Jack # PS1401140303 that you referenced that mounts on the trailer has an outer diameter of 2-1/2 inches. view full answer...
The Pro Series 48x32 cargo carrier can hold up to 400 pounds. The carrier itself weighs about 105 pounds including the ramp. This would yield a total tongue weight of 505 pounds. The hitch that you had previously purchased has a tongue weight capacity of 350 pounds. I would make sure that whatever load you are putting on the carrier is 245 pounds or less to ensure you are within the limit of the hitch.
Check your vehicle owner manual. If the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle is less... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer hitch, part # C13195 is designed to fit your 2016 Kia Sorento. This is a Class lll hitch and has a 2 inch receiver opening.
We have not had an opportunity to install this hitch on the 2016 yet but you may be able to judge the distance with a quick measurement. The distance from the plate on the passenger side that mounts to the frame to the top of the receiver is 6 inches.

The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98841 has a pin hole to accept a 5/8" pin. The Length of the pin needs to be at least 2-1/2" between the lock and collar or bend in the pin.
I recommend the Master Lock Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock and Coupler Lock Set # 3794DAT. This set will give you locking pins for both 1/2" and 5/8" receiver pins. A trailer coupler lock so that your trailer cannot be removed from your vehicle when connected. And lastly a storage lock for the trailer to deter... view full answer...
According to the owner's manual for your vehicle, the maximum towing capacity of the 2.4L 4 cylinder engine would be 1650 lbs. For the 3.5L 6 cylinder model, the maximum towing capacity is 3500 lbs if the trailer has brakes and the vehicle has a brake controller installed to operate them.
The Draw-Tite # 75684 hitch you referenced has plenty of capacity at 3500 lbs, but because the vehicle's tow capacity is much lower the lowest capacity should be followed. You'd be best served by using... view full answer...
I took a few measurements for you that I think will help. I have attached a diagram and made a short video for you showing the dimensions and the light.
I believe this light will work with your bumper without having to cut out a hole in the back of the bumper. When the light is mounted in the grommet, portion of the light that extends past the wall of the bumper will only be 1-11/32 inches. You should have no problem installing this in your 2 inch x 4 inch bumper. view full answer...
