Higher Capacity Trailer Hitch for 2011 Ford F-150 that Has OEM Hitch
Question:
I have a 2011 Ford F-150 with the Ecoboost and the hitch sticker says it is rated for 10,500 lbs GTW/1050 lbs TW. I want to pull an open car trailer that weighs about 10,000 lbs. Based on that, the trailer tongue weight would be around 1500 lbs. Do you sell a hitch I could replace the factory one with that has a TW above 1500 lbs? Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
The only hitch we offer for your 2011 Ford F-150 that has a factory hitch that would have a higher weight capacity like you need is the Torklift part # TLF1005H which has this capacity if used with a weight distribution system like the Curt TruTrack part # C17501 which has a tongue weight range of up to 1,500 lbs.
