Tow a trailer and use a hitch-mounted carrier at the same time with this heavy-duty hitch that works with your factory hitch to give you 2 stacked receivers. The SuperHitch is pre-drilled for camper tie-downs and works with SuperTruss extensions.

Specs:
With the 2 receivers that you get with the SuperHitch, you can tow a trailer and carry a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier at the same time. And if you have a truck bed camper, this hitch has pre-drilled mounting points for TorkLift's super-sturdy camper tie-towns (sold separately). You can also add one of TorkLift's SuperTruss hitch extensions (sold separately) to extend the top receiver of the SuperHitch so that it clears your camper, allowing you to tow your trailer while your camper's installed.
TorkLift is known for their truck camper tie-down systems and other camper accessories, so it just makes sense that they would have camper enthusiasts in mind when designing a trailer hitch. Each SuperHitch is built with integrated mounting points for TorkLift camper tie-downs, making it easier than ever to get a quality tie-down system for your slide-in camper.
The dual-receiver design of the SuperHitch also makes it easy to tow with your truck bed camper in place. The SuperTruss line of high-capacity hitch extenders is specially designed to extend the hitch receiver back far enough to clear your bed-mounted camper, while still allowing for an excellent towing capacity. An ordinary hitch extender can dramatically reduce your towing capacity. But each SuperTruss extension forms such a solid connection with the SuperHitch that the setup is able to maintain one of the highest weight capacities in the industry. When used with a standard weight distribution system, the setup can maintain up to a 10,000-lb weight limit, even with an extension that is 60" long. As a result, you can clear almost any truck bed camper and still do some heavy-duty towing.
With the SuperHitch from TorkLift, you can tow your trailer and use a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier at the same time. This is thanks to the dual-receiver design of the SuperHitch.
Most trailer hitches have a single receiver. Typically, you can find an adapter or extension piece that will slide into your hitch to give you 2 receivers, but these adapters dramatically reduce both your towing capacity and your tongue weight, limiting how much you can tow, as well as how much you can carry with a bike rack or cargo carrier. This SuperHitch, which mounts beneath your factory hitch receiver to provide the dual receivers, is specially constructed to maintain a high weight capacity so that you can use the 2 receivers without sacrificing towing or carrying ability.

Directions very exact and helpfully. Product is outstanding and excellent construction. Was surprised to see how much difference having the higher rated hitch made, eliminated all of the play in stocks receiver. Feel much better about hauling trailer (38 ft bumper pull toy hauler) now I've installed it. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to upgrade their hitch.
Torklift SuperHitch & Truss were the answer for our towing need w/ camper overhang. These Torklift “Super” products are rock solid & eTrailer sales staff ensured parts that were the perfect fit for our tow vehicle. Highly recommend!
Fits perfectly
Solid product and pretty easy to install. I did have a Hellwig Big Wig anti-sway bar and Torklift camper tie-downs installed, so the end link brackets and tie-downs had to come off and attach to the new hitch brackets. The new brackets and hardware make you able to install the end links back into place, but it is not the best as it pushes the link to the side and there isn't really a washer to put back against the bushing in the kit. I installed it by myself in my driveway in about 3 hours total with removing old brackets. If there was anything I'd knock on this kit was the packaging, which leads to breaking out of the box during shipping. The bottom of the box was worn all the way through and the powdercoating was knocked off of the ends of the hitch plates, so not really happy about that part. Other things in the box are double packaged, so at least another layer of cardboard or 2 would probably cure this issue. Not etrailer's fault obviously.
Excellent fit and finish. I downloaded the instructions to my IPad and followed them to the letter for installing with a Hellwig Rear Sway Bar. The whole installation was complete in less than 2 hours, including adult beverage time. All the parts were in the package. I also added the rear camper tie downs. Reading the instructions in color on the iPad was much easier than reading small printed instructions with black and white pictures.

Just fine, doing what I expected it to do. My only complaint is that the reinforced hole for the pin and clip makes it too wide to use my hitch lock.
etrailer managed to get the Torklift shipped up just a few days later than expected, which is great considering all of the labor and shipping issues in 2021. I live in Alaska, and the box arrived somewhat rallied. No fault to etrailer, but the center hole washers were loose inside the box and one made it's way out of the box sometime during shipment. I managed to install the system using a few wide area washers in lieu of the one center hole washer, and other than that little issue it was a pretty simple install and really beefed up my towing capabilities. I reached out to etrailer and they went out of their way to make things right by shipping me the missing center hole washer right after I brought it up. Great service, great product.
I cannot place an actual review on this product as I never installed it. In talking to the installers here, they informed me that I would have to 'beef up the truck frame ' as the forces applied by the extension kit would be more than my truck was designed for. The cost was prohibitive.
The item is still in the shipping box in storage, along with the extension kit. I didn't attempt to return it because the error was mine. If I had done the proper research, I would not have bought it. It was a very expensive error on my part.
Very good, pleased. Only complaint is spare tire no longer fit. Had to put a smaller tire onthe spare wheel to get a spare tire/wheel back under the truck.
Very stout product. Thanks etrailer for prompt shipping.
Needed to grind the excess rear backside of the OEM factory receiver tube a bit...normal factory variability. I run a Hellwig sway bar; didn’t like the links running off one side of a bolt, so welded in 5/16" 90-degree brackets to get a double shear, like the Hellwig mounts.
Very well engineered and manufactured product and worth the extra cost. Instructions need updating and optimized for OEM variations. I had to figure a way to get it done, making up a couple methods for my install to be a success. I also run a Hellwig sway bar on this 2003 short bed Dodge Ram 3500, so additional figuring there as well as it's not designed to accommodate this feature, but not too difficult to adapt if you're handy. Took the better part of a day but it's a premium quality hitch for sure.
My feedback is related to the install only and not the product. It would be very helpful to have a macro photo prior to the micro photo to help the interpret how the components fit the frame. Another suggestion includes providing a photo of left side vs right side components prior to install since the components are not marked "L" or "R". As an experienced mechanic & engineer, I found myself struggling with a few of the steps which includes the front tie-downs (TLD-2119). I spent approximately 60 minutes understanding the drivers side and only 10 minutes on the passenger side, due to a lack of better pictures. It is easy once the design concept is understood, ie, what does the beginning and end picture look like.
The product itself appears well designed and looking forward to seeing the results.
We have ordered twice over the last couple of weeks from etrailer and have had great service. The products have been top line products and easy to install. I have had orders from the same state where I live take longer to receive than the items from across the other side of US from etrailer. I have talked to several different people at etrailer and each was very professional and I received accurate information each time. If you need anything for a truck or trailer you should give etrailer a try it you will be very happy you did.
I would supply photos but all of the items I purchased was for under the truck to haul my trailer so no photos.
Thanks for all your help, Stan
This is a great hitch and goes on with everything lining up and good instructions. Use it with a 4 foot extension and is incredibly solid.
I received this hitch via UPS much faster that I expected. It was a perfect fit and installed in an afternoon. The only observation I have is that the pictures and instructions in the manual could be better, but there are some excellent online videos that work that problem.
Parts showed up faster tha expected,and in good condition.Thankfully I had help for the install,this is one heavy unit. All in all I am very pleased with with this hitch. All so the how to install videos were very helpful.
Very impressed with the torque lift product. Took a while probably approximately four to five hours to install, very tired afterwards
Been a great purchase for us and has worked well with our Truck camper and Boat! Easy to install.
Installation was easy with supplied instruction and on line videos!
Hitch came today and unpacked. Very heavy duty unit! Let you know later how easy the installation is. lol Good ship time.
The only problem we had with installing the product was the unclear possibly inaccurate instructions describing the bolt length to use. Other wise went in fairly easily.
Great to work with the Etrailer family. shipped early, easy to install. Excellent quality.
Heavy duty well built. I do wish they would include a instructional DVD.
Made to last.
As always fast shipping and helpful people on the phone

Hitch is still working great, no issues with camper, towing, etc. Would use the same product again without question.
