Setting up your vehicle for towing requires the right hitch, wiring harness, and accessories. A receiver hitch is the foundation — choose the right class for your towing capacity needs. Pair it with a ball mount, wiring harness for trailer lights, and accessories like a brake controller or weight distribution hitch for heavier loads. Cargo racks and carriers help maximize hauling capacity. Proper setup is critical for safe towing.
