The Curt Combo Bar # C49360 is generally used as a weld on receiver for custom applications on trailers, RVs, or service vehicles. I spoke with Curt and they have not tested the # C49360 as an extender, so they couldn't give me any specifications as to capacity as an extender. With that being said, I cannot recommend using it as an extender.
The Curt Hitch Extension and Reducer for 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches # C45048 may be a better option. This arrives at 34 inches long, but can also be trimmed to 24 inches. This is rated up to 6,000 pounds towing and up to 600 pounds of tongue weight at the 34 inch length, and up to 4,500 pounds towing and up to 450 pounds of tongue weight at the 24 inch length. This is also pre-drilled and powder coated to prevent corrosion.
It should also be noted that using a hitch extender will reduce your tongue weight by up to 50 percent.
