We have great options for trailer hitches that fit your 2013 Ford Explorer like the Draw Tite part # 76034 which has higher towing capacities than our other options. For trailer wiring you'd then want the # C56093 which is a custom fit option that will install easily.

Since 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.
