Ask the Experts about this Reese Hitch Fabrication Parts

• Availability of 2-1/2 Inch Receiver Combo Bar that is Less Than 18 Inches Long
  We do indeed have shorter 2-1/2 inch combo bars available than the 18 inch long # 11029 that you referenced. For a 12 inch long bar you can use part # 337RT255812 or for an even shorter 8 inch bar you can use # 337RT255808. I have attached a couple short video demonstrations on these bars that you can also take a look at.

• Recommended Hitch Extender For 2-1/2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver 7 Inches Long
  We don't have a 7 inch extension for your 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver. The closest we have is the Brophy Hitch Reducer and Extender - 2-1/2" to 2" Trailer Hitch - 6" Long # HR26. Since that is a reducer and an inch shorter, it most likely isn't what you need. We have 2-1/2 to 2-1/2 inch extensions, but they are 24 inches long like # C45048. My recommendation is to get the Reese Combo Bar 18" with 2-1/2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # 11029 which is unfinished and can be cut to size and...

• What Are the Gross Towing and Tongue Weight Capacities of Curt Combo Bar # E-11
  The Curt Combo Bar with 2-Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver # E-11 does not carry a specific tongue weight or towing capacity because these ratings are entirely dependent on the specific installation.

I verified with Curt that this item carries no specific ratings since it is a general-purpose item like their 6-inch # E-9 and the Reese # 11029. These items also are not specifically...

• Adding a Receiver to a Hitch Mounted Salt Spreader on a 2011 GMC Sierra 2500 with 2-1/2 Inch Hitch
  I believe I understand. You want to change the shank on the salt spreader so that it will still fit the trailer hitch but have a receiver on the other end so you can tow with the spreader still in the hitch. You would need combo bar # 11029. Then, if using a 2 inch ball mount, you would need a reducer sleeve, # 58102. Keep in mind that doing this is going to move the ball mount out far away from the hitch and will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50 percent. The combined...
