Recommended Hitch and Extended Ball Mount for a 2013 Suzui Grand Vitara
Question:
I have a 2013 suzuki Grand Vitera 4x4. I would like a hitch for it due to my son having a mini bike. I was thinking of getting a cargo trailor for it . But I wonder how far it would go past the spare tire on the back. Is there an extender for this receiver? Or any ideas how I can make that happen? Thank you

To add a hitch to your 2013 Suzui Grand Vitara you will want the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13001. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Suzuki with included hardware. It looks like the hitch doesn't extend more than a couple of inches from your bumper and well underneath the spare tire.
You will want to use the Curt Ball Mount item # D-4 which measures 10-1/4" long. This will give you clearance from your spare tire and allow you to hook up your cargo trailer. You will also need a 2" hitch ball item # A-90 and a hitch pin and clip item # PC3.
To control the trailer's lighting functions you will want the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # 56002.
