Hitches & Towing - Hitch Extensions Online

Adding hitch extenders to the assembly will not only make it easier to push the tongue farther away from the hitch, but it will also cause more movement between the hitch and hitch accessory, which will further increase the impact of the tongue weight.

What Does a Hitch Extender Do?

The use of hitch extenders does not only push the weight away from the hitch, which increases the engagement force on the hitch, but it also adds movement to the assembly, which in turn increases the tongue weight's impact as there will be play between the hitch and the accessory.

About Trailer Hitch Adapter

Trailer hitch adapters make it easy to use a 2" hitch accessory with a 1 14" receiver. An adapter permits the use of bike racks and cargo carriers that are designed for 2" receiver hitches. To prevent the movement of the accessory and reduce strain on the trailer hitch, experts recommend using a cargo support strap.

Clearing Spare Tire with Hitch Extender and Other Options is Safe for Vehicle Liberty. If you stick to the specified limits, such as not exceeding 50 percent of the trailer hitches and vehicle's load capacity, and not exceeding 350 pounds for tongue weight, using a hitch extender is perfectly safe.

Hitch Reducers Online

When it comes to hitches or towing, hitch reducers are perfectly safe. Using a reducer will not lower the amount of weight the vehicle can tow, but a ball mount for a 2x2 receiver will have a lower towing and tongue weight capacity than a ball mount for a 2-1/2x2-1/2 receiver.

An adapter slides directly into your hitch or onto the shank of your accessory and reduces a 2.5" x 2.5" receiver opening to 2" x 2" or a 3" x 3" receiver opening to 2.5" x 2.5".

What Is A Hitch Extender?

Hitch extensions are similar to receiver tubes that fit into your trailer hitch to add a certain amount of clearance for your vehicle's bumper or spare tire. By extending the receiver by 8", it offers a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 pounds and a tongue weight capacity of 350 pounds.

Hitch extenders reduce the tongue weight capacity of a trailer hitch by 50 percent. In other words, if the trailer hitch was rated for 1,000 pounds tongue weight, it would be reduced to just 500 pounds when using an extension.

Trailer Hitch Extensions: How Safe Are They?

Using a hitch extender is safe as long as you stay within the limits specified of the hitch and vehicle load capacity.

The other option to provide additional clearance from your spare tire would be to use a longer ball mount. Hidden Hitch Ball Mount places the center of the hitch ball 16 inches from the center of the hitch pinhole. If your ball mount requires a larger rise or drop, you could go with Ball Mount. To mount an extender, you will need an extra Pin and Clip, if you do not already have one. For added security, we have a Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock, part.

What Size Hitch Receiver Do I Need?

Measuring your receiver hitch tube from the inside to the inside is the best way to do it. You will know what size ball mount you need for your hitch after reading this. The standard size for cars and SUVs is 1-1/4". In most cases, it will be a 2" or 2-1/2" wheel, which is commonly found on SUVs and pickup trucks.

How Big Are All Trailer Hitch Receivers?

As of 2008, there are four standard trailer hitch sizes in the United States: 1-1/4", 2-1/2", and 3-1/4". The hitch receiver size refers to the dimensions inside the hitch. The standard hitch size approach allows for more options when towing.
