The Curt hitch part # C78KR is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Lincoln MKX. It's a Class III trailer hitch that would work well for you. For installing the hitch you would want to find a local mechanic with a good reputation to perform the install. These installs are pretty basic for most mechanics so you would not need a specialized installer.
For trailer wiring you then would want the part # C56298 which is a confirmed fit.
If 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.
