What is the Height From Ground to the Top of Drawbar on 2017 VW Golf TSI Model?
Question:
Hello, I have a 2017 Golf TSI and I am wondering what is the installed height from the top of the drawbar to the ground is.

Expert Reply:
On your 2017 VW Golf TSI the installed height from the ground to the top of the drawbar or the inside of the receiver tube is 9-1/2 inches n the Curt # C11412 trailer hitch. I've also attached a video of this installation to further assist.
For a ball mount on this hitch, I recommend the Curt # C45521 with hitch ball # A-82 or # A-80 along with hitch pin # F-4. Finally for trailer wiring I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118646.
If you will be using this hitch for a bike rack or other accessory, you will also need stabilizer strap # 18050.
