Question:

101001 Patriot Hitches General Rod-Ops Adjustable Rise/ hitch. In the video the guy mentioned a chart on your site that shows the decrease in towable and tongue weight this hitch can handle once you adjust it. But I cannot find this chart.

Expert Reply:

We have verified with Patriot Hitches that there are not different towing capacities and tongue weights based on the rise or drop of the Adjustable Drop Hitch Receiver Adapter # PH54FR.

No matter which rise or drop position the hitch is, it has a maximum 7,000 lb towing capacity and 700 lb tongue weight capacity.

The Adjustable Drop Hitch Receiver Adapter # PH54FR has up to an 11" rise or drop and a 2" receiver.
