What is the rise on the hitch shank? I am pulling a 3500lb tent trailer with my 2004 Toyota Sienna. The hitch sits low on my van.

No, the ball that is included in the package is a 2 and 5/16. Hope this helps.CodyCamping Connection866-576-8171

The rise on this hitch is 5-3/4 inch. If you have any other questions we would be happy to help. Cody Camping Connection 8665768171

Now I see why you are in between. Well I think you are on the right one, the 49902 has a 750 tongue weight, so with your 400 plus the 200-250 that will put you right where you need to be. The next lower is the 49901 but that is only 550 and you do not want to be over on your tongue weight, so I think you did your research properly and the 49902 is best for you.

How much weight will you be putting in the rear of the van, it is anything that is generally axle back of your vehicle.

The shank has a 6" rise and a 2" drop. Just make sure you are getting the correct size in weight as well for what you will be towing, use the tongue weight as well to factor your purchase. Thank you.

You seem to be doing pretty good so far. And remember you will want to position your trailer so it is even when towing. Thank you

Put it on a chevy equinox suv. Lower than a pick up truck and bottom will scrap the ground going up an incline. My carrier is sits level on the hitch.I would like to get a hitch riser to raiser it up a few inches.

That's what I did; works great....haven't had ANY problems with this hitch!! Just honor the 500 lb tongue limit and you're good.

Did you get this? I also have a 2008 Tacoma, towing a 1978 Airstream. The tongue weight of 1000lbs on this is to much I think. There are two other models of this product...one with a 750lb tongue weight and another with 550lb. I am not sure which to get. I think the Tacoma is only rated for around 600lb tongue weight and I think the 24ft trailer should fit this unless overloaded. Thoughts? I am new to towing. Also seems like a hassle to have to take it off to backup.

Normally anything under 5000 will be just fine with a regular hitch. What are you towing with?????

There are multiple threaded holes in back to accommodate most all ball heights, it's just an anti rattle anyhow, you won't here anything while your towing if you don't use it. It's a good hitch, don't let the anti rattle stop you from buying it.

I have a 2009 Toyota Venza and unfortunately I am getting drag in and our of my driveway. Harbor Freight has a Hitch Extender/Rise. I am going to give it a try.

I believe the rack is rated for a 200lb / 2,000lb (tongue / load) weight, which would equate to a 3/4" shank on the ball to fit the 3/4" hole on the rack (we ran into the same thing). If you can find a 2" ball with a 3/4" shank, that would also work; you'd just have to ensure you didn't exceed the 2,000lb towing weight on your 10' trailer. The rack / hitch combo has worked great for us...as long as we observed the shank diameter and capacities.

Somebody makes receiver hitch extensions for use with big truck bed campers. I've seen those carry heavy trailers. If you built the cycle carrier substituting that piece for the piece that comes with the kit it might work. Pop ups don't have much tongue weight. This is idle speculation. I haven't tested it, but that's how I'd do it

I would suggest that you purchase the Hitch Pin at a local High quality retailer. The pin is very important and handle all the weight you pull.

This will extend your hitch by about 11-12". The top receiver is about 4 inches above the lower. It works the best on a truck or larger SUV where the primary receiver (bottom) can have a drop style hitch, giving you room for whatever you use the top for. I use it on a minivan, which works but is not the best. With the low clearance of the van, I have to use a straight hitch for the bottom receiver. My bike rack can then be used in the top rack with just enough clearance, but gives the van a "low rider" appearance.

The hitch is intended for atv use so it is not 3500 lbs. I have had 800 lbs no problems it should support atv tow weight. My atv is rated at 1100 lbs

My hitch with 2 3/4" ball and a 2 1/2" to 2" reducer weighs 55 lbs, the torsin bars (2 of them) are 19 lbs each and a couple of pounds for the brakets for the tailer you are looking at close to 101 pound mark.The system works great on the road but is noise in town around corners, even with lots of grease.

sorry I'm responding so late...it will come apart in the middle ...we had to take off wench it would not work out of box and it was wielded, we put a bigger and better one on .. The hitch is built pretty good...

Like everyone has said, it is going to depend on the combination of your truck and trailer. The part of the hitch that goes into the receiver tube is an "L" and can either point up or down. I needed it to point up for my trailer. That made it interfere with the tailgate, by 1/2"? Pointing the hitch down would put the trailer tongue too low. Im guessing that it is not recommended... but after I tried out the hitch to make sure it worked like people said it did, I cut off the extra height on the "L" piece. Works great, no interference now.

It is a ONE INCH shank. In the threaded section (bottom side) it measures just under 1" ... so I'm assuming it's 1" stock before being threaded. I would imagine you'd only find the 3/4" shanks on the smaller hitches.

This will attach a plow/scraper/tiller and other type tools to a square hitch and allow you to raise and lower them manually . Youmust be on the ground beside the device to raise or lower your device. Mine is hooked to a square box hitch on the back of a badboy buggy and works great also works great on my sons 4 wheeler, hopes this helps you
