Is 5th Wheel RV Warranty Affected by Installation of Curt RV Hitch 13703
Updated 07/05/2018 | Published 07/03/2018 >
Question:
Will this void the warranty on my Fifth wheel? 2019 Highland Open Range 3X427BHS. The factory hitch looks week so I wanted to get something that has some strength to it.

I see no reason why a properly-installed aftermarket hitch like the Curt Adjustable RV Hitch # 13703 added to your Highland 5th wheel should cause a warranty issue for any manufacturer. We sell a lot of these RV hitches.
Just the same, I suggest checking with Highland Ridge by calling them with your trailer's VIN. If nothing else they may be able to give you some helpful advice on the installation. I linked two videos also.
Adding this 2-inch RV hitch will allow you to use RV-rated 2-inch accessories like a bike rack. Our range of racks for 5th wheels is shown on the linked page. A popular option is the Swagman E-Spec 2 Bike Platform Rack # S94FR which includes locks, and which works great on bikes without front fenders.
