Question:

Hello, I have a friend having a hard time backing his RV. Im trying to convince him to get a front hitch. Problem is he has 600 lb tongue weight. Your Eco hitch shows 750 lb but not guaranteed to fit. Do you have any solution to our problem? His truck: 2015 GMC 2500 Sierra. Thanks.

Expert Reply:

I may have an option for you, but the EcoHitch Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7900 you were looking at is for select 2010-2018 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks and will not work on your friends 2015 GMC Sierra 2500.

Since the Curt # C31071, and Draw-Tite # 65078 that are confirmed to fit your friends Sierra only have a vertical load rating of 500lbs, the only option is to have a universal hitch like the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41990-07 fit by a qualified fabricator. This hitch has a 1600lb tongue weight rating, but you will want to make sure to follow the fabricators recommendations, and make sure you follow the maximum tongue weight rating of the vehicle manufacturer.
