Recommended Trailer Hitch With Extension For 2003 Chevrolet Silverado With Camper
Question:
Thanks for the information, I forgot to include that my truck is a short bed. Is that a different hitch then the one you suggested? Thanks again for your help

Expert Reply:
The only way you can get the extension you need for a trailer hitch is by replacing your trailer hitch with the TorkLift SuperHitch Original Trailer Hitch, part # TLC1205. This is a Class V hitch and it has dual 2-inch receiver openings.
You can then use the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension, part # TLE1548. This extension has dual shanks that fit in the dual receivers.
Since your truck comes with a 7-way you can easily replace it with part # 30955. This will give you a working 7-way and 4-way connector on your truck.
The 4-way extension I recommend you use is part # HM47115. This will plug in to your truck 4-way trailer connector and your boat trailer with the 4-way. This extension is 48-inches long.
