This SuperTruss hitch extender is specially designed to work with your SuperHitch trailer hitch (sold separately). Like most products from TorkLift, the primary purpose of this extender is to help create a towing setup that fits perfectly with your truck bed camper system. Not only will you be able to extend your trailer hitch receiver out far enough to clear the overhang of your camper, but you will also maintain a high enough weight capacity so that you can tow your trailer.
Heavy-Duty Towing with a Hitch Extension
Most hitch extensions dramatically reduce the towing capacity of your hitch setup, making it difficult to tow a loaded trailer over a certain weight. The SuperTruss, though, creates such a sturdy connection with your SuperHitch trailer hitch that you can still maintain a high weight capacity. To get the highest capacity possible, use a standard weight distribution system with the TorkLift towing setup.
The SuperTruss uses both of the receivers on your TorkLift SuperHitch to ensure a sturdy, secure connection. The solid shank of the extension's top tube slides into your top receiver, and the extension's lower compression tube installs in your bottom receiver. Each tube is held in place with the hitch pins and clips that were included with your SuperHitch. The connection between the extension and your hitch is reinforced with 2 sturdy steel collars that bolt around the tubes of the SuperTruss.
To give you absolute peace of mind, lateral support chains connect to the hitch and the extension on either side of your setup. Just attach one end of each chain to the extension and secure the opposite end to your SuperHitch. Then tighten the chains with the integrated turnbuckles. These chains not only provide extra security to keep the extension in place in your hitch, but they also transfer some of the weight back from the extension to your frame-mounted hitch.
How to Determine the SuperTruss Length You Need
If the camper is mounted on the truck:
Measure from the face of the truck's rear bumper to the outside edge of the camper's bumper. This is the length of the extension that you need.
If the camper is not mounted on the truck:
1. Measure from the inside of the front of your truck bed to the outside face of the truck's rear bumper.
2. Measure the camper's overall floor length from the rubber bumpers at the front to the outside edge of the rear bumper.
3. Find the difference between these 2 figures by subtracting. The difference is the length of the extension that you need.

Structurally strong! Chain and turnbuckles created an extension for my RV extension bumper with storage box. Thought with chains it might need constant re-tightening but has remained tight, after initial trip of 5500mi. Of towing car dolly!

I’ve had the superhitch with 24” extension mounted on my 2013 Ram 2500 for 1 year now and use it frequently to pull my 16 x 7 enclosed trailer with my motorcycle and other gear inside. The hitch and extension give me the towing capacity I need for pulling trailers behind my Lance Truck Camper. I highly recommend the SuperHitch!

Anna did excellent. She was "all" that I believe that a customer servive representative should be, "great", telephone ediquette, product knowledge, listener, attention to detail(product availability,which product was best for me,cost comparisons of products, options for mailing,and a process to followup on status of mailing product from the manufacturer and my receipt of the product.Anna completed what I consider to be an "Excellent Customer Service" experience.

Looks great just not attached because I still can’t get my hitch and tie downs delivered
by: Mike09/25/2022
etrailer was great, good price, fast delivery, easy to follow instuctions! I am very happy with this product. I got so i can use with a bike rack on my Chevy Spark. I had to buy an adapter to go to 2 inch reciever. Bike is 2 inch, works well. It does wobble a bit, added some hitch locks and straps, that fix most of the wobbling.

Excellent product the only way to safely tow with a large camper
by: Armas08/22/2018
I use this to haul my travel trailer with my tailgate open and my RZR in the bed of the truck. It goes together easily and is extremely solid when mounted. Much stronger than just an extension tube.
by: Lennie08/12/2022
Easy to order, shipping was fast. The product is heavy duty, and the fit and finish was better than expected. The hitch extension handles my car hauler loaded with a Jeep with no problem.
by: Bradford01/16/2018
Product fit perfect. Easy to install. Very heavy duty. I’m adding an extension for a 25’ camper trailer so I can fit an ATV rack in my bed that has an 18” overhang.
by: Richard J11/10/2021
Received quickly but the box was showing signs that a struggle had taken place and the box lost. Upon opening the boxes I found that several pieces from the installation kit were missing, I called and an entire new installation kit was quickly shipped to me. Installation was easy and I have been very happy with the customer service.
by: Gregory04/20/2021
Great product and works as required. Even better customer service. I had one collar that bent when torqued to required specs and they sent me another to replace it at no charge. Awesome

Shipped to Alaska with reasonable rates. Product was shipped out within 24 hours of order and arrived 2-3 days later. Boxes were well prepared for a long journey and arrived in excellent condition. Product prices were also as good or better than other sites I could find. I have yet to install what ordered, and if anything changes I will update this review. So far I will be ordering from this company again. Many thanks for the great service.

- Can TORKLIFT Super Truss Be Used With Curt Class V Trailer Hitch On 2014 Ram 3500The trailer hitches that the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension, like part # TLE1524 is designed for hitches that have 2 receiver openings like the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum, or Original. When the extension is used with these hitches it reduces the gross towing capacity and tongue weight capacity by 50 percent, unless used with a weight distribution system. The extension is inserted into both receivers, for added strength and stability. The Curt Trailer Hitch, C15808, you said you installed...
view full answer... - Which SuperTruss Extension Is Needed for 30 inches from Vehicle Bumper to Camper BumperThat would depend a lot on the shape of the nose of your trailer, but if it's a standard trailer with a decent amount of clearance between the coupler and where the rest of the trailer starts the part # TLE1524 that provides 24 inches of clearance would work just fine. Otherwise a 32 inch long part # TLE1532 would be a better choice if clearances are tight on the front of your trailer.
view full answer... - 24 Trailer Hitch Extender For 2 Inch Hitch ReceiverThere is only one option for a 24 inch hitch extender that fits in a 2 inch receiver, the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension for SuperHitch Trailer Hitch Receivers - 24" Long # TLE1524. Technically this is for TorkLift SuperHitch dual-receiver trailer hitches but you could use just the top portion if you really wanted to do so. This may be more than you were looking to spend for an extender but I did want to at least mention there was an option for you. Otherwise, the longest standard...
view full answer... - 20 inch Hitch Extension that Can be Used with 2005 Dodge Ram 3500To get a 20 inch extension and have capacity for the trailer you mentioned you'd have to use an extension like the Torklift # TLE1524 which requires a Torklift hitch installed on the truck like part # TLD1102 and you'd be set. There really isn't any other way to have the capacity and the length needed.
view full answer... - Torklift SuperHitch Fit Recommendation for 2012 Ram 2500 with Factory Bolted on Trailer HitchThe correct Torklift hitch for your 2012 Ram 2500 that has a bolted on factory trailer hitch is the part # TLD1101. We have confirmed this fit with Torklift so we know it will work. For Supertruss extensions we have three options. The part # TLE1536 for 36 inches, part # TLE1521 for 21 inches, and part # TLE1524 for 24 inches.

You don't lose any capacity between the two extensions as they have same capacity. Here is capacity info for both: Weight capacity when used with SuperHitch Original or Magnum: Maximum gross trailer weight: 7,500 lbs Maximum GTW when used with weight distribution: 14,000...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch And Extension For 2012 GMC 2500 For Towing Trailer With Tailgate DownUsing a hitch extender in the hitch on your 2012 GMC 2500 reduces the towing capacity by 50 percent. Unless you have a hitch installed that has a towing capacity of 20,000 lbs or more like the TorkLift Trailer Hitch, part # TLC1208-30 and an extension like part # TLE1524 or part # TLE1536 along with a weight distribution system on your truck I cannot recommend using an extension of any kind.
view full answer... - How to Use a TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension to Tow a Trailer with the Tailgate DownFor starters, the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension will only work if you have a SuperHitch Original, Magnum, or Hero already installed on your tow vehicle. These hitches have a dual receiver tube opening which is what allows them to work with the SuperTruss. If you need one then please let me know the year, make, and model of the tow vehicle. In order to determine if the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension part # TLE1524 will work for you, you will want to measure from the center of...

view full answer... - Picking Out Shorter Torklift SuperTruss Extension for 2004 Ford F-250 Plus SuperHitch FitThere are campers for truck beds that do hang past the rear bumper quite a bit like you mentioned which is why you see a lot of talk about 36 inch and 48 inch long extensions. That said, since yours is only 24 inch you're best off going with the shorter 28 inch size # TLE1524 that you mentioned and you'd be good. The correct Torklift SuperHitch that fits your 2004 Ford F-250 is the part # TLF1002-30 and will work great with the hitch extension. With this and the extension you'd be set.
view full answer... - Hitch Recommendation for 2014 Ford F-150 for Use with Hitch Extender and Weight DistributionYes, the Torklift hitch part # TLF1005H will allow you to use a hitch extender and use a weight distribution system with the extender as well. For a 24 inch extension you would want the # TLE1524 for use with the hitch. The best way to pick out a weight distribution system is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the setup when it is loaded and ready to tow. This figure also includes the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of the tow vehicle. I attached a help article on...
view full answer... - Correct TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2018 Ram 3500The correct TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2018 Ram 3500 is part # TLD1108-30 which installs under the factory trailer hitch receiver. This combo will then allow you to use one of the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extensions like part # TLE1524. There will be no cutting or drilling required. The TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receivers for a 2018 Ram 3500 don't replace the factory hitch.
view full answer... - Availability Of A 12" Long Hitch Extension Rated For 10,000 lbs TowingWe do have a hitch extender that will work for your application. After looking thru the available options, it seems the Gen-Y Hitch Hitch Extender for 2" Trailer Hitches # GY89SR is going to be your best bet. This extension is 14" long from the center of hitch pin hole to center of hitch pin hole, it can be adjusted to 12" length as well. It is rated for 10,000 lbs so it will be plenty strong for this setup.
view full answer... - Can a Blue Ox Hitch Extender be Used with Weight Distribution on a 2013 Ford F-150The use of a hitch extender will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by 50 percent. Because of this reduction and because weight distribution adds additional stress an extender should not be used. There might be a longer weight distribution shank available depending on the system you are using. Otherwise, to get more extension you would need to replace the hitch on your 2013 Ford F-150 with # TLF1005H (but only if it is a short bed model that came with a factory hitch,...

- Recommended Trailer Hitch and/or Extension for 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 with Service BodyFor your 2017 GMC 2500, the service body issue isn't solved with just a hitch swap. Instead you will need a long ball mount like # BM20 or a hitch extender for the additional clearance needed. The addition of a hitch extender will reduce your hitch capacity by 50% unless you are using the Torklift Supertruss system. If you have a heavy trailer, I recommend using the TorkLift SuperHitch Original Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V - Dual 2" Receivers # TLC1211 which is compatible...

It doesn't look like it hangs past the rear of the truck by much though so I would assume the 24 inch SuperTruss part # TLE1524 would work great with the Kuat Pivot adapter part # PVP20B.

I have towed about 7,000 miles with it now and am much more confident in the strength than the simple extension I had. It works well. Etrailer has been great.
