Trailer hitches are not designed as custom fits for any RV like your 2017 R-Pod, but we can narrow down your choices. In order to choose which hitch is correct, you need to measure the frame of your trailer, which is going to let you know the exact hitch you need. So long as your R-Pod is a box frame, C-channel frame, or I-beam frame you will need one of the following two hitches, depending on the width of your frame:
- 18" to 51" Wide: Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # C13702
- 22" to 72" Wide: Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703
I have added links to the instructions as well as videos for you to take a look at as well.
