The product specs say it can pull up to 5,000 lbs. but I haven't tried to pull that much with it myself. I've only pulled about 700 lbs. so far, and it clearly feels like it could handle so much more - it's very sturdy and feels as solid as the hitch receiver already mounted on my truck.

I use it to haul a 40 ft ladder on my Tundra. It will adjust higher than I need it to.

Anderson web sight says they can handle trailers up to 30K pounds. So yes they will work for you.

It's not rated for towing. I bought it to extend my bike rack on the back of my jeep. I wouldn't put more than 100 lbs on it.

I strongly doubt it. I would say that the max pull would be no more than 350lbs.

I use it on a 18 foot flat trailer and have loads of 8000 lbs on it . Is the trailer weigh under the hitch capacity ? If it is it should work ok .

The straps are rated pretty high and I strap a 450 lb. 4 wheeler to my trailer and it does not move in transit. I think the strap may work well for you.

I pull an enclosed 16 foot trailer that is 9' 6" tall from the ground to top. the trailer weighs 2100 pounds and it work good for me. I pull mine with a Chevy express van. Just remember only snug it up not to tight. You just want it to have a little friction. If to tight you will have issues.

That's what I have it installed on. I dont recommend using it to lift a loaded trailer, but it works fine.

No. This has a ball mount into it, so it wouldn't be able to attach the trailer and the truck. It is for locking when the trailer is not attached to something.

No, there is not enough weight even when it's loaded to cause any of those problems. I don't tow it anywhere other than pulling it in my lawn.

I can answer that question for myself: No. But I see no reason why it couldn't be used for that purpose. The jack is easily strong enough to handle that amount of weight. For the sake of safety, it would be in your best interests to chock the rear wheels and keep them on the ground

no sure I purchased mine to haul my Kayak that weighs about 75lbs. Very strong rack and easy to mount

I think the lift itself would work for holding a rooftop cargo carrier. The straps may be too short to go around the carrier, but if they are, buy longer ones at a hardware store. Good luck!

Certainly: It's small, lightweight and in use digs into both the tire and the ground/pavement to hold the trailer securely, best to have two, one in front and one behind the same wheel. I bought two pairs so I could secure both wheels of my cargo trailer. Good Luck, Glen, Michigan

It should work aslong as the tow weight is not over 5000# or close to that i would think

This is a very stout and heavy piece. It's not appropriate as a towing extension but should be fine for a cargo carrier. My bike rack is about 50lb itself. Add two mountain bikes and your up to 150lb total. Handles this very easily.
