Hitch Recommendation for a 2008 Kia Sorento
Question:
We are looking for a receiver hitch to install on a 2008 Kia Sorento to haul a single axle trailer and jet ski. What would you recommend?
asked by: E B
Expert Reply:
For your 2008 Kia Sorento the correct hitch for your vehicle would be the Draw-Tite part # 75516. The # 75684 that you referenced is for newer Sorentos so it would not work for you.
For trailer wiring you would want the Curt Wiring Harness part # C59496.
For ball mounts I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a carrying bag.
