Expert Reply:
The weight of Brophy adapter # HT5R does weigh approximately 5 pounds. The MaxxTow adapter MT70355 (discontinued) had a bit more steel, longer shank, and a collar around the receiver opening so it is actually closer to 8 or 9 pounds minus packaging. Please note that the Brophy model works with Class I and II hitches whereas the MaxxTow model only works with Class II hitches.
