Hello Andrew, Well that sounds like quite the fun trip, what state or states will you be traveling through? You're asking a really important question, especially since you're planning a cross-country trip with about 250 pounds of bikes and…
The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
Hey Eric, The hitch extenders that we currently offer for a 2-1/2" receiver tube opening unfortunately max out at 6,000lbs GTW and wouldn't be capable of towing the trailer. You're most likely going to need to upgrade to a TorkLift…
Hey Jeffrey! the overall height of the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter #RM68BQ is 11-1/4". The distance from the hitch pin hole to the top receiver hitch pin hole is 8-1/4". I attached a picture the full dimensions below. What are…
Thanks for all the details Jason! To get a Blue Ox tow bar to fit with the shackles on your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Sport you'll need either the 7/8" #BX88357 or 1" #BX88358 Adapters, but just be sure to check with the manufacturer of your…

Hello Mike, thanks for reaching out. We do offer a trailer hitch for the 2025 Toyota Grand Highlander Max Hybrid Platinum. For that I recommend the following: - etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2"…
Hey Deb, The bike rack and swivel hitch you mentioned, #S86SR and #HLY84FR, are great options for what you are trying to do. The bike rack is going to have plenty of capacity for your bikes. The TorkLift #TLE1536 is a hitch extender that requires the…
Hey Scott! I love the products that you've picked out, but we're going to need to get you setup with a 2" receiver on your 2000 Ford Econoline because the adapter you have for your 1-1/4" adapter is going to already drop the tongue…
The only other extension option we carry besides the Torklift SuperTruss extender that does not cut your tongue weight in half is an extra long ball mount. Traditional extensions such as part #C45796 cut the tongue weight capacity of the hitch on the…
...I have questions regarding hitch extensions and accessories. I have a 2020 Ram 3500 Dually with 8ft bed. I am carrying a bed mounted Arctic Fox 992 truck camper. I need a hitch extender of 36...
