The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75658 comes with everything needed for the installation. I have attached a the installation instructions that you can use for a reference.
If you are needing to do some towing, then you will also need a ball mount and hitch ball like part # C45036. This comes with a 2" hitch ball and has a shank that drops 2" as well. I have attached a link to a helpful article about choosing the correct ball mount for you to check out.
To complete your towing setup you will need to install a vehicle wiring harness. I recommend the Tekonsha T-One # 118675 which will give you a 4-Way flat connector for basic trailer lighting functions. An installation video for this have been linked for you as well.
