Rear Bumper Hitch Solution for 4 inch Bumper with Limited Clearance Above Bumper

Question

Question:

Hi ... I have a Grand Design Travel Trailer and there is a slight overhang over the 4x4in bumper. The clearance is 2 5/8 inches. Is the distance between the bottom of the flat plate and the top of the hitch less than 2 5/8 inches? Thanks,

Due to the limited clearance you have above your rear bumper you'd need to install a bumper hitch that hangs below the rear bumper like the Buyers Products # 3371804060 as the # UF35-946401 needs to install above the rear bumper.

Thanks for the pictures! 2" hitches do not all have a 5,000 lbs capacity. The capacity varies by vehicle. That is an old Reese 06497 hitch and the sticker is correct. It does indeed top out at 3,500 lbs. It looks like this hitch came on all of…
