Question:

I double pull my 5th wheel trailer with a Quad trailer on the back of the RV. I need a cargo hauler the would allow me to connect the cargo hauler to the 5th wheel and the Quad Trailer to the back of the Cargo hauler. Saw one a couple of years ago on the road but didnt get the name of it.

For the ability to use a cargo carrier and a trailer on the back of your 5th wheel, you would need the Curt # D210. This is one of the only mounts that will allow you the function you are seeking. You will need a hitch ball like # 63845 for a 2 inch diameter hitch ball or # 63847 for a 2-5/16 inch option.

Most dual receivers only allow you to use them for flat towing and even if they allow trailer towing, they have restricted tongue weights because it is using an adapter along with a ball mount. This Curt # D210 is a ball mount with the receiver for a bike rack or cargo carrier, so it does not further restrict your tongue weight on your hitch.

I've linked the page to our cargo carrier options for you. Let me know if you'd like a recommendation based on measurements or weights.
