Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For Trailer With Frame 66-1/4" Wide Inside To Inside

Question:

C13704 says for up to 66 but the cross bar says 68. My beams are 66 1/4 to the inside. Would this work. I saw the other I believe up to 72 but I liked the extra tongue weight on this one

I have another option for you but since the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # C13704 you were looking at is designed to fit trailers with frames measuring 66" outside to outside, it will be to narrow for the frame of your trailer.

Instead you will need the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs # 13703 which is designed for trailer frames up to 72" wide. The # 13703 has a maximum trailer weight rating 3500lbs and a maximum tongue weight rating of 350lbs but you will want to contact the manufacturer of your trailer to confirm the trailers ratings and use the lower rating between the trailer and trailer hitch receiver.

I included a video of the # 13703 for you to take a look at.
