Hello Francis, thanks for reaching out. That is a pretty tall order. The strongest hitch extensions we offer are the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extensions like part # TLE1548 (10,000 lbs towing 500 lbs tongue weight). These can only be used with a TorkLift SuperHitch trailer hitch with stacked 2" receivers. So you would need to install a new trailer hitch on your truck. If you can tell me the year, make and model of your truck I can see what we have available for you.
We do have a 14" extender from Gen-Y part # GY89SR that is rated for 10,000 lbs towing and 500 lbs of tongue weight.
Aside from those extensions, all of the other 2" hitch extensions we offer would be no longer than 18" like part # e48YR. This is rated for 3,500 lbs.
We technically do not have anything for a 2" hitch rated for 1,000 lbs of tongue weight.
What were you planning to use the extension for? How long do you need it to be? Reply on this page.
