For your 2017 Chevy Equinox we do have a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch by Draw Tite. For that you would want the part # 36408 which I attached an install video for you to check out.

Normally we would recommend the Class III hitch # e98865 that you referenced since this size is more popular and has more capacities, but I can understand in your situation wanting the Class II 1-1/4 hitch.
