Video Transcript for Comprehensive Review: TorkLift Cannon Hitch Extension for 3" Factory Hitch Receivers

Hello, neighbors, I'm Steven here at etrailer.com. Today we're looking together at this Torklift Cannon hitch extension for your three-inch factory hitch receivers, and this one is 24 inches long. So, like I said, this will work in conjunction with your factory three-inch receiver opening, and it's gonna help you clear obstacles in the bed mounted such as campers, salt spreaders, those kind of things. And it's gonna let you tow or use your hitch-mount accessories. It's got a nice, robust, heavy-duty design. It's American-made steel made here in America even, and it's got a nice, beautiful black powder coat finish that's gonna resist corrosion.

And, again, everything here is made in America. You got nice patented lateral support cam buckles, brackets and chains. Now, folks, you're looking at the end here. It's gonna go in the vehicle. Again, a three-inch by three-inch tube.

You can see a welded nut inside of there. From the bottom you'll put a set screw, or a bolt rather, and then another one back in here from the bottom up. And that's in the instructions that come with it. The patented lateral support chains would then go out over the hitch tube, one on each side like a V, and you can tighten them with the cam turn buckles, (metal clanging) or take the link out, or move this clasp here up on different chains to get the length and tightness you need. All that's spelled out in the instructions.

As far as how to do that, it's pretty simple. Like I mentioned, you get all the mine hardware, all those secure bolts, lock washers, nuts, spacer blocks. Now coming here to the front, I'll pull up here to the front. You got your safety chain tie downs here. You got this wire-mount bracket.

This is just loose on here. I put it together real loose just for demo. You can move this to this side. You can go upside down on the bottom on either one, depending on your space, wherever you need this guy, it's pretty versatile. It's got nine holes and slots on both ends, so you can put it where you need it. So, again, three-inch at the front here, slides into the factory hitch. Down here it's gonna come out as a two and a half inch by two and a half inch. So it also comes with a sleeve adapter. So, again, two and a half by two and a half here. If you need the two-inch, (metal clanging) they threw it in there with it. So, you get that two-inch adapter to slide in there, and then you could fit all your two-inch accessories, ball mounts, bike carrier trays, whatever. Now let's talk some weight rating. So again, 24 inches long, 5,000 pounds max gross trailer weight. If you're using it with weight distribution, you can go up to 10,000 pounds max weight. The maximum tongue weight is 500 pounds and that goes up to 1,000 pounds. Again, if you're using in conjunction with a weight distribution kit. Again, a very nice lifetime warranty.
