Trailer Hitch for Fifth Wheel to Tow a Boat

Question:

I have a 2005 jayco eagle 5th wheel camper. Was looking to put a receiver hitch on the back to the about a 1000 pond boat.i have two frame rails coming it the back of the trailer which are connected to the bumper. They are about 64 inches wide from outside to outside. Was wondering if this receiver hitch would work for me??

The Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13703 will fit a 64 inch frame and can be used on your 2005 Jayco Eagle so long as it has a box frame, C-channel frame, or I-beam frame.

This is a Class III hitch that has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity and 3,500 lb towing capacity so you do need to ensure you are below those capacities.
