Is the Curt Towing Starter Kit C45534 A Good Fit for the 2019 Chevrolet Equinox
Question:
Vehicle: 2019 Equinox AWD 1.5L Ground to top of installed hitch receiver: 16 Ground to bottom of coupler: 12 1/2 Ball diameter: 2 Gross weight of trailer and boat: 3500 pounds Is the Curtis #C45534 w/2inch a good choice? Though it appears the as measured by me is 3 1/2, Im assuming that practically it will be less than that because the rear of my car will lower once the trailer is attached. Thank you.

The Curt Towing Starter Kit part # C45534 would indeed work for your 2019 Chevrolet Equinox. As you stated, the 1-1/4" difference from the trailer hitch and coupler while using the above ball mount will then be reduced with the tongue weight of the trailer added to the vehicle. The trailer also does not have to be perfectly level either, but the more it is the better off you will be. That said, the above ball mount will work just fine.
If you need any other parts for your towing setup please just let me know.
