Best 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailer Hitch Options- Video
Hello, neighbors, it's Brad, here at etrailer. And today, we're taking a look at the best trailer hitch options for a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Now there's plenty of options available here at etrailer, as far as your trailer hitch for your Jeep Grand Cherokee, but I've gone ahead and selected three of 'em, which I think are great choices or at least my personal favorites.

Now, when shopping for a hitch, they can all start to kinda look the same, but I'm here to kinda break down, maybe some differences that help determine which one's best for you. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Curt- Video
Today on our 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee, we'll be having a look at and installing the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch Receiver, part number C13065. Here's what our hitch looks like installed. As you can see, the only part of our hitch that is visible from behind our vehicle is the actual 2" receiver opening itself with our safety chain loops on the bottom. The main receiver of the hitch is hidden behind a rear fascia completely tucked up underneath the vehicle. Now, a few things that our customers have said about this hitch they really like is that it has a clean factory like appearance. I'll agree with them on that because it does look like a factory hitch on this vehicle. They like the fact that the receiver is the only part that is visible on it with their 00:00:45 frame being tucked up behind the fascia. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Curt C13182- Video
Today in our 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee, we'll be having a look at and installing the CURT class three trailer hitch receiver, part number C13182. Here's what our hitch looks like installed. We have a decent portion of our frame hanging down. But there's a good section of it that's hidden behind the rear fascia. We do have this stylish tubular construction to give it a very factory-like appearance and make it more aesthetically pleasing than having a square bar hanging down. on the side of our receiver here, we have our industry standard five-eighths of an inch diameter hitch pinhole to secure any of our hitch mounted accessories. Now towards the end of our receiver opening, we have this nice collar that is welded on to help give it a more pleasing appearance and to give it some extra strength and durability when we're towing a trailer. On the bottom here, we have our safety chain loop plate which is welded on to the bottom of the frame and the receiver. Now the opening is a little bit small so you have to make sure you have some smaller safety chain loops if you're planning on towing a trailer with this hitch. This hitch features a 5,000 pound max gross trailer weight rating and a 750 pound max gross tongue weight rating. more

Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Draw-Tite- Video
Today on our 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee we'll be having a look at and installing the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Class 3 trailer hitch receiver, part number 75699. Our hitch is completely hidden behind our rear fascia of our vehicle. The only part that you'll see hanging down is our actual Class 3 2" receiver opening itself, with our safety chain loops, which are a rolled steel design welded onto the bottom of our receiver here. What I like about these, being a rolled steel design, you can clip in from the back, the side, or the front, giving you plenty of options depending on your safety chain configuration. This gives you the room to work with in order to get properly hooked up. This hitch is unique in the regards that there are two pin holes here. The larger one is our industry-standard 5/8" diameter pin hole, which you'll use to secure any of your hitch-mounted accessories with a pin and clip or a locking device. more
