You will need to refer to you vehicle specific owners manual as to whether your 2007 Suzuki XL7 can be flat towed; trim levels, transmission options and other vehicle specific options all need to be considered to determine if a vehicle can be flat towed safely and without damage occurring. If you determine that your 2007 Suzuki XL7 can be flat towed you will need the following items:
A base plate kit. I suggest the Demco Classic Base Plate Kit, # DM9518137. This is a confirmed fit for... view full answer...
The included mounting hardware of the Curt hitch part # 13518 are 12mm-1.75 X 30mm Cl 10.9 Hex head bolts. All of the hardware is included with the hitch.
The torque rating for all of the installation hardware that comes with the # 13518 that you referenced is listed in the install instructions that I attached in a link to the right.
Since we link the instructions directly from the manufacturer and they are subject to change we avoid posting the torque figures for liability purposes.

The Curt Trailer Hitch # 13518 for the 2008 Suzuki XL7 will have visible cross tubing beneath the rear of the vehicle. Based on where the mounting locations are on the vehicle, the hitch had to be designed accordingly and that is why there is visible cross tubing. It doesn't look bad, it is tucked right under the bumper. I attached an installation video for you to see how it installs and to see the finished product.

I recommend the Magnaflow Universal Catalytic Converter # MF447104 for your 2009 Suzuki XL7 with the 3.6L engine. This catalytic converter uses 2" inlet and outlets and is constructed of stainless steel. There is also no bung for the O2 sensor as yours is in the exhaust tubing and not the catalytic converter. view full answer...
For your 175/70-13 tires the best choice is the Titan Chain # TC1520 chains with square links in diamond pattern for maximum traction. If your Owner's Manual recommends only using Class-S low profile chains these will meet that requirement as well.
I also recommend the Glacier Rubber Adjusters, # PW100, for easier installation and a better fit. I have included a video review of these adjusters for reference.
I have also included a link to all of the tire chains that will fit a 175/70-13... view full answer...
The K-Source universal towing mirrors will fit on mirrors that have a lip or gap between the factory mirror housing and the glass. I have included a link to a video as an example for you.
If you determine that will not work then take a look at door mounted mirror # 11650. It fits on the door just below the window and at the bottom of the door. I have included a link to a video of this mirror as well.

For your 2009 Suzuki XL7, we carry the Curt Class 3 Trailer Hitch # 13518 that is confirmed to fit. I attached an installation video for you.
As for if your Suzuki is pre-wired for towing, you will have to see if your vehicle has the wire plug installed. To do this, please review the attached video on installing a trailer wiring harness on a 2009 Chevrolet Equinox. The two vehicles where manufactured together under a GM/Suzuki. The video will show you how to remove the jack cover panel... view full answer...
