8 inch Hitch Extender Recommendation for 2014 Toyota Tundra with 2-ATVs in Bed of Truck
Question:
I have a 2014 Toyota Tundra CrewMax 4x4. Max towing is 9800 lbs and tongue weight is 1,000 lbs. Im pulling a 3,000 lbs. trailer with two ATVs. I have another ATV in the bed with the tailgate down. I have a Trimax 6inch Adjustable hitch rated at 10,000 lbs and 1500 tongue capacity. I need a 8-12 inch extension to move the trailer out past the tailgate. What do you recommend in terms of a hitch extender?

Expert Reply:
We have the part # C45791 which is an 8 inch hitch extender. It has the capacity for your trailer as it has a 3,500 lb capacity. You should note that the towing capacity of your hitch gets cut in half when using an extender like this. But since you have a towing capacity of 9,800 lbs that won't be a problem at all.
