Universal Hitch to Install on a Class A RV Rated for 10,000 Pounds
Updated 05/16/2018 | Published 05/14/2018 >
Question:
I am looking at purchasing a Class A motor home to tow a 7,000# car trailer. Im only considering 10,000# towing rated RVs, but most have 5,000# hitches. Would you have a hitch to upgrade to 10,000#? Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
We do carry universal hitches that are rated for 10,000 pounds and above, like the Draw-Tite part # 41990-07. I've linked the selection.
With that being said a lot of times when a motorhome is rated for 5,000 pounds towing it isn't the hitch that's the limiting factor. I suggest making sure the Class A you purchase is rated for towing up to 10,000 pounds because if it's not adding a higher rated hitch isn't going to help you at all.
