First you will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C23WR for your 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz. This class III receiver is made in the USA and has a 2" receiver opening. The Vehicle Wiring Harness # CU94FR will provide you with a 4-way flat connector for most small trailers. You can use the Mounting Brackets # 18140 and # 18144 to secure the 4-way to the receiver cross tube without drilling.

The etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900 will provide you with 2 different height receivers, 2 hitch pins and clips, a 1-7/8" ball and a 2" ball allowing you to match the coupler size and height on most trailers. If you are towing an enclosed or camper type trailer a Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37060ET would be best to reduce trailer sway caused by strong winds pushing on the trailer.
