Extend your trailer hitch receiver opening so that your can clear your spare tire when using your hitch-mounted bike rack or so that your trailer won't hit a rear-mounted propane tank when you make sharp turns. Powder coated steel resists rust.
Features:
Specs:
Note: Not for use with a weight distribution system. The limiting factor is the capacity of your hitch. Using an extender will reduce your hitch's overall capacity by 50 percent.

TOP QUALITY ,FAST SERVICE
Excellent product. Great service!
Excellent
Looks strong and durable
havent used it yet, but the quaility looks great.
Good product. Don't forget to buy a pin.
easy to use and good idea I like it. multi-use item; a must for bike users
Exactly what I needed to place cargo rack beyond rear mounted spare tire carrier
Excellent choices, great product. I needed a little extra length for a specialty attachment and these two receiver extensions allows me to have more versatility with my attachment. I couldn't be happier.
I was surprised by just how solid and heavy it was made.
Just what I needed to move my Bobcat UTV hitch back to I can use it as my yard dog to shift my trailers around and not worry about the plastic tailgate nor the plastic bed getting damaged.
The hitch sits under the bed and this extends it out so it is useable.
The hitch extension worked perfect. The only one that was 18" pin to pin which was exacty what I needed to make this combo work.
Dual hitch to start. Top whole a luggage rack to haul coolers and the bottom for the bike rack.
Thanks etrailer.
I needed the hitch extender because I added a 9'6" camper on to my truck and I pull my jeep trailer with truck. I trussed the extender back to frame.
Right part, delivered on time

Couldn’t be happier
Work great! I needed an extension due to my truck camper. It holds my heavy duty bike rack and 2 ebikes with no problems.
Bought some tail light lenses for my fishing boat trailer good price came quickly Great service put a bike rack also easy to put together takes minutes to put on and takeoff rack $200 cheaper than my neighbor same bike rack then I bought a ball hitch extension 18 inch to keep my wrangler that we Toby hind the motorhome from hitting the back bumper when I make a sharp turn I’m sure that should take care of the problem everything I bought from the trailer our quality products quality service and everything they ship always comes on time personally I think etrailer rocks
Needed a hitch extension for Gator 825I this piece fit perfectly not a cheap add on 5stars definitely

Still working like it was designed for thanks again
Excellent quality - not a scratch on it when received. The welds appear to be very good. Delivered very quickly.
Didn't rate it excellent only because it lacks rings near the end for safety chains. On the other hand, one extension I found had rings (2 sets of rings - one for vehicle to extension, another from extension to trailer), but it cost nearly $200, and had the same weight rating as this one. As received, the safety chains have to be very long, but for the difference in price, (64 vs 200) I could have rings welded on if needed..
This works perfectly for my application which was to tow a trailer with my tailgate down. Does lower your towing capacity by a fair amount, but for trailers with low tongue weights this isn’t a big deal.
I tested it on the Jeep and the Stowaway 2 in storage. It works perfect to create clearance with the extra wide spare tire

We are delighted that you are happy with your purchase! Just be aware that using an extender such as this will lower the towing and tongue weight capacity of the hitch by half, due to the extra leverage moving the load rearward will cause.
The extender is fine, although I had to do a work around. The female end of the extender is not deep enough The 5/8 inch holes of the tow bar will not line up with the 5/8 inch holes of the extender. I must use the 1/2 inch hole of the extender. And you only gave me 5/8 inch pins. The 1/2 inch I own is not long enough to go all the way through the extender. The work around was to buy a 1/2 x 4 inch bolt and nut. Not ideal, but it works.
This extension worked great to allow me to fit my bike rack (4 bikes) between my SUV and pop-up camper. Without it, the propane tank, battery and tongue crank were in the way and prevented me from getting the bikes on the rack. It's rock solid, trailer tows the same as with no extention.
Quality, fits well, exactly what I needed!
This extends the reach of my hitch on a Yamaha golf cart, under a rear-facing seat. I added an E-trailer step to make it easy for people to step onto the rear platform.
Works just as advertised, needed this to extend the hitch out farther so I could pull my sprayer behind a John Deere Gator, works great, gets the hitch out from under the vehicle. Can't say enough about the great service from etrailer, ordered, and they upgraded my shipping to quicker service, great communication during the process, will do all my trailer accessories buying from them from now on!!! Thanks
The packaging was OUTSTANDING!!!
Order/communication/shipping was awesome. Ordered Sunday night and got an email from a rep saying it was received. An hour later another email from another rep said it was in stock and would ship shortly. Shipping email came that same night, and product arrived in 3 days as expected. Product is very solid, just as spec'd and fits my need perfectly. Only negative is it is doesn't have safety chain hooks which will have to be welded on.

After one year its still one of the best upgrades I have done to my Bobcat UTV. The only thing I have added is installing two anti-rattle hitch tighter to take out the rattle from the hitch extension and the ball hitch when I dont have a trailer connected.
