Question:
Will 2017 hitch work on 2018.equinox?

Expert Reply:
There were enough changes to the 2018 Chevy Equinox that Draw Tite had to create a new hitch for it. For that they made the part # 76419 which does not fit a 2017 model Equinox.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
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.
For trailer wiring you would then want the part # 118750 as well.
