Capacity of TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum on 2015 Ford F-350 With 48" Extension & Weight Distribution
Question:
Can you use the weight distribution system on a truck that has a 48” extension on it ? I have a 4’ over hang from my slide in camper. I was told that the weight distribution system would not up my towing capacity as long as I had the extension on. Is that what you would say also? Thanks

Expert Reply:
So for towing capacities for your 2015 Ford F-350, you would need to go by the lowest-rated component, which is indeed the 12,000 lb towing/1,200 lb tongue weight capacity of the 48" extension
- TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension for SuperHitch Trailer Hitch Receivers - 48" Long # TLE1548
That would be the maximum capacity, and only if used with weight distribution and the SuperHitch that fits your '15 F-350, which is the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver # TLF1002-30.
