Availability of Hitch Extension with Higher Weight Capacity
Updated 09/02/2025 | Published 06/19/2025
Question:
Hello I am looking for a hitch extension 6”-8”. But I would like something that can handle at least 800 lb tongue weight. Also, I have a 2021 Newmar bay star sport 2813 RV. Looking at replacing the hitch. I see you have one that has a 1000 lb tongue weight rating. It looks like it is bolted on to the bottom of RV frame rail. I am assuming I need to drill holes and just bolt it on. Is this correct?

Hey Nathan, so we don't have a hitch extension that long that has the capacity you need but it looks like you ordered the Buyers Products hitch # 3371801055 very recently. Were you looking for a hitch instead and this hitch was what you were in need of.
