Can Roadmaster RM-077-6 Dual Hitch Adapter Be Used for Towing a Trailer
Question:
With the RM-077-6 and the 6offset in the down position, can the down position slot pull a utility trailer?

Expert Reply:
The # RM-077-6 dual hitch adapter isn't meant for trailer towing. It's intended for flat towing a vehicle while providing a receiver for a hitch mounted accessory like a bike rack or cargo carrier.
For carrying a hitch mounted accessory while towing a trailer, you'd want to use a multi-purpose ball mount like part # D210. The ball mount has a 750 lb tongue weight capacity, but the load placed on the receiver portion can't exceed 500 lbs.
