Hey Philip, it looks like in the time since you asked this question you returned your # WS73RR and replaced it with the # WS63RR. Did you get what you need figured out?

Why does a 22k hitch only have 15000lb Gross Trailer weight?

@Phil That is really goofy and I wish they made that number make more sense but it has to do with the fact that the 2-5/16 inch hitch ball has a higher 22k capacity and the 2 inch ball has a 10k capacity. In reality the tongue weight capacity should be 10 percent of the total trailer weight of which ball that is used.
