Availability of High Capacity Trailer Hitch that Will fit 34 inch Frame Measured From Outsides

Published 02/25/2016

Question:

I have a 1098 Renegade toterhome and stacker trailer. I am looking for the highest rated 30-40 thousand lb rating. I have talked to forklift but the person that I talked to was not very knowledgeable. Do you stock a hitch that would fit this truck. The frame rails to the outside are 34inch . I am looking for a hitch immediately. Thanks,

I believe I may have a solution for you. The TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver # TLF1003-30 has a 30k towing capacity and is designed for cab and chassis style truck frames that are 34 inches apart measured from outside to outside. You should note that this hitch only has this rating when used with a weight distribution system like the # TLWD1000.

You will need to verify that your motorhome has the same capacity and you should note that this hitch will require drilling of your frame.

Since this hitch hasn't been custom fit for your vehicle you will need to check it out to determine if you think it's design would fit your frame. The cross tube of this hitch will end up setting 6-1/2 inches below the truck frame. You would need to compare that measurement to the bumper on your vehicle to see if it would clear.
