What is the Tongue and Gross Trailer Weight Rating for the Curt Adjustable Hitch C13704
Question:
There appears to be conflicting information about C13704. When searching it falls under the 350lb tongue and 3500lbs of towing rating. But when I click on the part the body details says this: Rating: Class III Maximum gross trailer weight: 5,000 lbs Maximum tongue weight: 500 lbs Which is it?

Expert Reply:
The Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13704 is rated for 500 lbs of tongue weight and 5,000 lbs gross trailer weight. I checked with Curt to confirm this for you. Please note that if you are using this trailer hitch for anything other than to tow a trailer you will also need to use the Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap part # 18050.
