Question:
What extension can I use with this hitch I bought from you? I’m putting the cargo rack on top and towing max 3000 pounds. Tough weight can be much. I picked up by hand.

Expert Reply:
Our Trailer Hitch Extender # e48YR will extend out your 2" ball mount 18". This extension is rated for a trailer up to 3,500lbs with a tongue weight up to 350lbs. Do note the extender will require you to reduce your tongue weight capacity by 50%. So if your current receiver is rated for 6,000lbs or more you will be within range for your 3,000lb trailer.
