Recommendation to Secure Moped Rack and Tow Trailer Behind RV
Question:
I need a dual stinger for the back of my motor home that will carry a moped rack 600lbs and tow a suv or a 5000 lb boat.

I recommend taking a look at the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2 Inch Receiver # D210. This ball mount will allow you to secure a hitch-mounted accessory like your Moped rack while also towing a trailer. It features a 7,500 pound towing weight capacity and a 750 pound tongue weight capacity, which is the highest rated multi-purpose ball mount we have available.
I have attached a short video demonstration on this product that you can also take a look at.
If you are looking for a dual receiver, we do also have these available, such as the Curt # D-192. However, these will not have the weight capacity you are needing, and using an adapter like this will also reduce the hitch's overall capacity by 50%. This is why a better option will be with a multi-purpose ball mount like the above mentioned product.
Lastly, I recommend verifying that the trailer hitch and motorhome itself are rated for the type of tongue weight you are looking to load onto the hitch. You can check directly with the motorhome manufacturer for its specific capacities.
