Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver And Wiring For 2020 Forest River Heritage Glen 5th Wheel Trailer
Question:
What hitch would be best to put on the back of my 2020 forest river heritage Glen 5th wheel trailer? Looking to tow small trailer with golf cart or maybe at most a couple quads. Thanks

As long as the frame of your 2020 Forest River Heritage Glen 5th Wheel Trailer is 18" - 51" wide I highly recommend the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13701 which can be bolted or welded to the frame of your trailer and offers a 500lb maximum tongue weight and 5000lb maximum trailer weight. You will want to check the owner's manual of your trailer or contact the manufacturer to verify the maximum trailer weight your trailer can tow.
Since you are planning to tow another trailer you will need to add a 4-way connector to your 5th wheel trailer. I recommend the 4-Pole Hardwire Kit with Circuit Tester # 18252 which includes a circuit tester to confirm the function of the wires on your 5th wheel trailer, and quick splices to make the connections.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
