Recommended Upgraded Trailer Hitch for Tiffin Allegro Motorhome

Question

Question:

We have a 2014 Tiffin Allegro Open Road with a 24000# F53 chassis and a 30000# GCWR. If my math is correct, that should give us a 6000# towing capacity. The coach came with a 5000# hitch. Our toad weighs 5320# so can I install a 7500# hitch, and if so, do you carry them? Thanks!

I do have an option for you but most factory motorhome trailer hitches have a maximum capacity of 5,000 lbs. If you have a larger vehicle that you need to tow, this will have to be replaced. I don't have a bolt-on option for you but still an option nonetheless. I recommend the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Service Body Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 41990-07 or part # 41990-16 which you can modify for your motorhome. They can either be drilled/bolted or welded to the frame. The hitch has a 16,000 lb capacity which will be more than enough for your needs.

Hi Chris; the distance across the #C14011 from bolt hole to bolt hole is 34.49" on center. According to Curt, it is the same for all four sets of bolt holes. This hitch is designed to fit the 2000 - 2005 Ford Excursion.

I do have an option for you though there aren't custom fit hitches for box trucks. The frame is not really the issue but rather the body the up-fitter adds on which could hang down below the frame where the hitch mounts or actually use the holes…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
