Question:

I have a 2013 Sabre Silhouette 5th wheel. Wanting to pull 2 wheel trailer with a golf cart. Is this the best way to go or will the hitch be strong enough for this? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

An RV frame trailer hitch such as # 13703 is going to be too large to install on a golf cart but I have some options that could work for you. First, take a look at the Reese Towpower 3-Way ATV Hitch # RP7065100. If your golf cart has a 5/8 inch tongue or frame hole at the back center you could bolt on this 2,000 pound capacity hitch (limited to the capacity of the golf cart).

Another possible option is a hitch such as # C19031. There would need to be a flat metal frame piece of the golf cart to bolt this hitch in place.

A third option is to fabricate a hitch using some of our hitch fabrication parts which I have linked. The raw steel receivers can be welded directly to a frame or to flanges and then bolted to a frame.
