Hitch Extension Compatibility with Weight Distribution System
Question:
My truck has a class 4 hitch, camper weighs 3000lbs. Even though it isnt necessary, can I still use my weight distribution hitch with this 18inch extension safely? Im trying to haul my 4wheeler and pull my little 20foot camper without damaging my tailgate.

Expert Reply:
The only hitch extension we offer that is compatible with weight distribution hitches is the Titan Hitch Box Extension and Reducer # RP45292. This product is designed to fit hitches with a 2-1/2 inch receiver opening and then reduces down to a 2 inch hitch opening. This means you will need a hitch with a 2-1/2 inch opening and a weight distribution system designed for a 2 inch opening. Without knowing what vehicle you have I cannot recommend a hitch, but I did attach a page that has all of the weight distribution systems we offer designed to fit 2 inch hitches.
