Question:
For product ‘ etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2 Item # e98856‘ what’s the correct TW capacity? Description says up to 500lbs TW but video says is only 350lbs. Can you confirm which TW measure is correct. I have a 2019 Jeep Wrangler JL.

Expert Reply:
I checked with our vendor and the etrailer item # e98856 has a 350 lbs tongue weight capacity when installed on a 2019 Jeep Wrangler JL.
The Draw-Tite item # DT78MR has the highest available tongue weight capacity at 675 lbs. I highly recommend checking with your owner's manual or contacting a Jeep dealership to confirm what your Wrangler JL's actual tongue weight capacity is. The hitch manufacturer's, especially Draw-Tite, over-rate their hitches because they fit many different models of vehicles and some have higher capacities.
