Recommended 2 Inch Hitch Extender w/ a 500 lbs Tongue Weight Capacity
Question:
Is there a hitch extender maybe 8 to 12” that would have a TW at 500 lbs? My existing hitch configuration will not allow me to my tailgate it hits my pwr lift and in a tight almost 90 deg. Turn I’ll just trim my trailer with my truck cap corner.

Yes, there is. It is the Gen-Y Hitch Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches item # GY89SR which is actually 14" long. This fits a 2" receiver, has a 500 lbs tongue weight, and a 10,000 lbs maximum towing capacity. This extender, like all others, reduces your hitches capacities by 50% so you will want to verify this still gives you enough ability to haul your trailer.
