Pintle Hook Mount Plate and Hook Recommendation with 20k Capacity for 2-1/2 inch Hitch
Question:
I have a 2015 dodge ram 3500 with a 2-1/2 inch receiver. Wanted a hitch for towing a 20,000 GVW tandem axle trailer. Lunette ring on the trailer I think was rated for 6,000 lbs tongue weight. I was looking at the # C48239 mounting plate and either the C48210 or C48215 hitch. I looked at a forged 2-1/2inch hitch but I think it said it wasnt compatible with the factory dodge receiver.

Expert Reply:
For a pintle mounting plate with a 20k capacity that is designed to fit a 2-1/2 inch hitch we have the Buyers Products part # 337PM25812 as the Curt you mentioned only has an 18k capacity. Then for a hook to bolt onto this we have the part # C48215 which has a 30k capacity.
