I was going to write a detailed review here but we did an entire blog post about the hitch and cargo carrier we bought from etrailer, the experience was fantastic and so were the parts for our build! The full review and how we did the install is at https://shantytravelers.com/hitch-carrier-generator-install/
This hitch extender is well made and exactly what I needed for my van. I have a gear box and rear tire that mynski carrier needed to clear and this hitch was perfect.
Great hitch extender, heavy duty and well made!
Great solution to set up my bike rack on tv trailer.
Nice heavy duty will work great
Perfect extension for the clearance I n eeded
good product very strong fast delivery
This is exactly what I needed on my truck. The hitch gave me the reach I needed to launch my boat while keeping the trucks rear end out of the water. The recent tides are high and my trucks tires and rotors would get submerged in the water. With the extension added only a small portion of my tires were in the water. The tide was high that it was spilling out of the ramp.
I do not tow with the extension. I take the time and exchange the hitch in the boat parking lot. It worked perfectly.
Thanks
It worked.
Good quality hitch extender, however, ended up not using it because I just wasn’t comfortable with the weight distribution aspect. Ended up buying a Hensley Hitch for the camper. Will not hesitate to use it for my flatbed trailer pulling a lighter load though.
The items were delivered but were damaged in shipping. Customer service was super helpful, easy to connect with and a replacement was sent immediately. Thank you for the excellent service to resolve the problem.
Working as expected
Great product. I need to extend the blue ox tow bar and raise it to pull a Jeep. Etrailer.com as always has what you need an ships fast with great prices.
Super heavy duty and quality made. Perfect welds and finish. FAR superior than the overseas imports.
Very heavy duty, exactly what we needed.
This thing is heavy duty compared to similar hitch extenders.
Just what I needed to extend trailer hitch. A bit pricey but it’s rated at 10,000 pounds so it’s heavy duty.
Quality product, prompt shipping, great communication.
Helped make it easier to back up traile r.
EXTREMLY GOOD QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SERV ICE

Exactly what I needed - very solid!
Just as advertised, very solid & heavy!
Very well built item at a fair price for the quality...
2 heavy items were shipped in a lightweight box with inadequate shipping tape to secure the box. The box came apart during shipping and the parts were lost
