Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2006 Land Rover LR3
Question:
looking for a hitch for my LR3 that will let me pull a small trailer no boat or have a bike rack and still keep my full size spare? Any thoughts appreciated.

We have one hitch that is a fit for your 2006 Land Rover LR3 and it will work great for towing a small trailer, but it doesn't allow you to keep the spare mounted under the rear of the vehicle. For that you would want the Curt Hitch part # 13456.
Since 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.
For trailer wiring you then would want the part # C59496 which is a universal kit confirmed as a fit.
