Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a Passport Trailer
Question:
I have a passport 28 foot trailer and I want to put a cargo basket on the back bumper to haul a 130 lb generator. Will this hitch work?

Expert Reply:
The Curt RV Bumper, # E-100, is designed to fit on a 4 inch square channel bumper. If this is the type of bumper you have, then the hitch will fit. You will want to check your RV owners manual to determine if he bumper is rated for this type of application and if so, what its capacity is.
If you determine this hitch will not work, I recommend installing a frame mounted hitch, # 13703. This hitch fits box frames, C-channel frames, and I-frames that are 22 inches to 72 inches wide. I have included a link to the installation details for reference. It can be bolted or welded on. Welding should be done by a qualified professional.
