Hello I got a question. We are having a ford f150 2015. We are pulling a camper with 2360 dry weight and 320 pounds tongue weight. We are wanting to put a golf cart in the truck bed and need to put our tailgate down to get the golfcart in. Iam looking for a extension who is able to hold up the tongue weight and the weight of the camper easily. I should not need more then a 12 inch extension.thank you
