What is the Tongue Weight of the Blue Ox High Low Adapter BX88241
Question:
Can you please confirm the tongue weight of product BX88241?
asked by: Rich
Expert Reply:
The Blue Ox High-Low Adapter # BX88241 is only designed for flat towing applications where there is no tongue weight since there's not downward pressure from a trailer tongue. If you need a dual hitch adapter for towing and carrying a hitch mounted accessory, your best bet would be something like the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount # D210. This is rated for 750-lbs tongue weight towing and up to 500-lbs for carrying an accessory.
I've linked a video of this adapter, but if you need something rated differently let me know what specs you're seeking and I can let you know if there's anything that might work.
