Hey Jason,

The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH97CR weighs 40lbs and the Curt Rack Receiver # C92NR weighs approximately 30lbs. The3 Curt is rated only for carrying hitch mounted accessories and isn't rated for towing a trailer. Regardless of higher weight I recommend going with the EcoHitch to always have the ability to tow a trailer.
