  • Bike Rack and Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport Carrying Up To 4 Bikes

  • Recommended Anti-Rattle for Swagman XC Bike Rack
  • The Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style for 1-1/4" and 2" Trailer Hitches # S64650 does not require a specific wrench or socket. It does use a 3/4 inch wrench or socket and you will want to move the shank up and down as you tighten the bolt. If you want a wrench and socket you can use the Ratchet with 3/4" Socket for Anti-Rattle Hitch Bolts # PTW38106-24. You may want to use the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable for Swagman Bike Racks w/ 1-1/4" & Combo Shanks - 7' # S64031 to further...

  • Parts Needed To Tow a Trailer with a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • In order to tow a trailer with a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport you'll need a trailer hitch to start, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13396 which has a bolt-on install and class III rating with 2" receiver tube opening.

  • 2019 Land Rover Discovery Sport Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations
  • I recommend using the following for your 2019 Land Rover Discovery Sport: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e68KR - Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # NV22B I really like the etrailer hitch because the matte black finish not only does a great job at matching with your vehicle, but it also hides nicks and dings that occur from road debris it comes into contact with during travel. The NV 2.0 bike rack is my choice in a bike rack because of how easy it is to use and how sleek it looks...

  • Is the Curt Custom Fit Trailer Hitch part # C13247 Available
  • I have a receiver hitch to fit the 2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport as long as it does not have the 5+2 seating option but the Curt Hitch part # C13247 is no longer available.

  • Recommended Towing Mirror Extensions For a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • I recommend going with the CIPA # 7070 (or #7070-2 both sides) mirror over the Dual-View # 11953 mirror you found. While these are both universal mirrors which you can use on your 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport, I find the dual mirror setup much more difficult to see things clearly. The very small blind spot mirror on the end just makes it more difficult to see since the main mirror is reduced so much in size. They both do use the same style Straps # 11952STRAP which are a simple design...

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for 2015 Land Rover Discovery Sport Tire Size 235/55-19
  • Konig has a great set of XG style tire chains that fit your tire size of 235/55-19 but the part number you mentioned does not fit. Instead you'd want the part # TH01594250. I wasn't able to pull up your vehicle's owners manual online but you'll want to look up the tire chain section in the owners manual in the glove box of your vehicle and all tire chain restrictions will be listed there, it will also say which axle to run the chains on. In case there's a clearance restriction mentioned...

  • Trimming Needed to Install Trailer Hitch On 2015 Land Rover Discover Sport
  • There is trimming required to install the Curt hitch part # C13396 that you referenced. I attached a picture that I took from the install instructions that shows where the trimming is required. The Curt trailer wiring kit part # C56297 is a confirmed fit and the kit to use. It does require running the power wire up the battery which I would do through the exterior of the vehicle as that will be much easier than getting the wiring into the interior of the vehicle, concealed behind interior...

  • How to Carry Bikes on a 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • We do have a Curt trailer hitch that fits a 2017 Land Rover Discover Sport; it's part # C13396. It only fits if you don't have the 5+2 in your vehicle and will work with your bike carrier as long as it fits a 2 inch hitch. The 5+2 seating is basically a third row of two seats that can be layed flat in the rear cargo area.

  • Can Yakima Bike Rack Install on Aero-Style Crossbars

A bike lock is also included to help protect your investment. I have attached a short video demonstration...
