Which Hitch!?

[eder10986]

Hey fellas. So I have a class IV hitch receiver rated up to 7900lbs. I’m thinking that’s not enough for my SA. Looking at all class V and such that are rated for 10k + is misleading since that’s the rating for the 2 ¼” and only about 8k for the 2”.

What are y’all using for these heavy a$$ boats?

I use a Weigh Safe with my SuperDuty. Something like this should work good for you.

I have the same hitch without the scale on it. Make sure to get the locking one. You can order those so the hitch and the receiver pin are keyed the same. That's how I ordered mine.

I'd throw this in for consideration - very clean design and locking system. Makes it almost impossible to break into. No pins to pull or lose. Comes with 4 keys.

I should have gotten one of these YEARS ago.

I use the BW tow and stow. It comes with a 2" ball rated to 7500 lb and a 2 5/16" ball rated for 10,000 lb. The come in different amounts of rise/drop

[eder10986]

That’s my issue. I have a 2” rated at 7500lbs but I feel I’m gonna max it out and it would be unsafe.

What do you tow?

You can get a 10000# 2” ball.

Says 4550 ftlbs in the pic :)
One heck of a typo. You know someone tried somewhere..https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210128/334161168a64c6604b44d95968dc6b5c.jpg

Guessing they meant 550 ft lbs for the 2” shank

I would suspect you are correct but it's one more example of this lazy country we live in today and how people just don't care about details. I watch fox news sometimes here locally and I can find a misspelling in their onscreen captions every night.

My bet, if it was off of Amazon, it’s Chinese.

Question. Do our boatmate trailers only fit a 2” or can they receive a 2 5/16” ball?

You can swap out the actuator for a 2-5/16”

Newer SEs are the std 2 5/16" ball.

Everything else is the 2"

For hitch height adjustment, I thought this was cool on my new Mojo EOH trailer

Interesting, haven't seen another trailer with that setup on it. What is on the other side, just two washers, and nuts on the end of those bolts?

Guessing so. I’ll likely pick it up/close tomorrow. I just took that one yesterday when I went to go see it in person.
