Question:
I have a travel trailer toy hauler that is gross close to 12,000 lbs, and tongue weight of 1300 lbs. is there an 4inch extension made? Have a 2016 GMC sierra with a 2.5inch factory hitch.

Expert Reply:
The only hitch extender we have that will work for you is the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension. The shortest extension they offer is part # TLE1521 which measures 21" long. The issue is the weight of your trailer and 50% reduction from the adapter. In order to use the SuperTruss you will also need the TorkLift SuperHitch Original Trailer Hitch Receiver part # TLC1212 if you have a 6-1/2' bed or part # TLC1211 if you have an 8' bed.
