Question:
I have a 2006 Forrest River Georgetown class A motorhome I need to replace the hitch, it looks like the 5350 would work. My frame is C channel 32 apart hole to hole. It had a 3500 on it that cracked on each side almost losing my Jeep, I want to install a 5000 lb hitch. I had a little concern about the adjustable hitch installation but appears to be safe. I dont know why my present hitch broke, I tow a 2010 Jeep Liberty, I will attach pictures of the broken hitch.

Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Multi-Fit Motorhome Trailer Hitch, 24" - 46" wide # 5350 is rated for 5,000 lbs as you stated. From what I can find, your Jeep may be over this rated towing limit and most Class A Motorhomes have a welded hitch from the factory capable of much higher weights.
I recommend the looking at a product like part # PC3, part # e98880, or part # 63232 to secure the accessory in your 2" trailer hitch receiver.
