Can 2023 Jeep Gladiator Increase Towing Capacity
Question:
I have a 2023 Gladiator Sport, how do I increase my max towing capacity from 4000 to 7500?
asked by: Noel
Expert Reply:
It is impossible to increase the manufacturer's towing capacity on any vehicle, including your 2023 Jeep Gladiator. Those towing capacities are set by the vehicle engineers for safety and no product can increase that. Even with a hitch that fits your Gladiator like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C74DR that has a 7,500 lb towing capacity, that is simply what the hitch has been rated for by Curt, and does not represent the capacity of the vehicle.
So when towing with your '23 Gladiator with a set up like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C74DR and 4-way # C56407 you have to abide by Jeep's 4,000 lb capacity.
