Expert Reply:

The highest-rated trailer hitch extender is from Gen-Y and is rated for 10,000 lbs towing/500 lbs tongue weight:

- Gen-Y Hitch Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches # GY89SR

Please note that all hitch extenders, including the # GY89SR, will reduce your hitch capacity by 50 percent, and you have to abide by whatever is lower - the 10k of the extender or 50 percent of your hitch capacity.

You will also need a hitch lock to secure this extender to your hitch, the Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # e98882.
