Does the Curt Multi-Ball Adjustable Ball Mount # D900 Reduce Hitch Capacity
Question:
I would like to purchase a Curt Multi-Ball Adjustable Ball Mount for 2inch Trailer Hitches. The pin to ball length of this unit is 15.25 inches. Does this length require a reduction in the tongue weight rating of my hitch ? My hitch is an OEM factory class five hitch installed on a 2014 Silverado 1500 with a tongue weight rating of 1250 lbs. I will be towing a travel trailer with a GVWR of 3800 lbs and a tongue weight of 380 lbs. Thank you !!

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Curt Multi-Ball Adjustable Ball Mount # D900 that you referenced is pretty long but it does not reduce the capacity of a hitch like a hitch extender would. This would easily allow you to tow your 3,800 lb trailer.
