Question:
I have a 2007 H2 HUMMER WITH A TIRE ON THE BACK, I want to pull a travel trailer with it and need a hitch extender to move it away from the tire. What length extender should I use
asked by: Ron P
Expert Reply:
We offer several hitch extenders that could work for you. But you should note that any time you use a hitch extender you end up cutting the capacity of the hitch in half. The Hitch Extender # HE12 that you referenced would give you an additional 12 inches of length added to your hitch. You would need to measure your setup to determine if that would give you enough clearance.
For a shorter extender you would want the part # HE06 that would give you an additional 7 inches of clearance.
