Question:
What is the weight capacity of this hitch extension
asked by: Nick
Expert Reply:
Curt combo bar # C49360 does not have an official weight capacity rating because it is not an extension. They use this bar and others in the manufacturing of their trailer hitches which have a wide range of capacities. If you can tell me the intended purpose/amount of weight I can tell you if the combo bar will be able to handle it or if something else is needed.
But if you are looking for a 2 inch hitch extension then the longest that fits a 2 inch hitch and still has decent capacity is going to be 18 inches such as # ST18. This extension is rated for 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight (7,000 when used with weight distribution) and 3,500 pounds tongue weight (650 with weight distribution). However, the use of this hitch extension will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by a third. So if the reduced capacity of the hitch is lower than the rating for the extender then you have to go by that lower rating.
