Expert Reply:

Curt trailer hitch # C13365 is rated for 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight (10,000 pounds when using weight distribution) so it can handle a gross trailer weight of 4,000 pounds easily.

If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop, interchangeable ball set, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included to the right that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

And if you need to add trailer wiring use # C56031 to add a 4-Way.
