While there is a trailer hitch fit for your 2017 Chevy Equinox, the part you mentioned won't work because it is a fit for pickup trucks with step bumpers, which your Equinox does not have. So instead, I recommend a hitch from Draw-Tite:
- Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76028
I really like this hitch for your Equinox because it is concealed but for the receiver, which will help ensure your Equinox keeps its clean look. This 2 inch hitch also has the highest capacities of a hitch for your Equinox of 4,500 lbs towing/675 lbs tongue weight, which speaks to its strength and durability.
If you plan on doing some towing and also need a wiring harness, the correct fit for your 2017 Equinox is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118494.
