The BXH1004 is Blue Ox’s Class III receiver hitch for the 2022–2024 Ford Transit. It takes a 2-inch receiver opening and is built for that specific vehicle rather than as a universal fit.

Blue Ox publishes two ratings for this hitch, and which one applies depends on how you tow. Used as a weight-carrying hitch — the trailer coupled straight to the ball, no spring bars — it is rated for 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 900 pounds tongue weight. Used with weight-distribution equipment, it is rated for 8,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 1,200 pounds tongue weight. The higher pair applies only when a weight-distribution system is actually fitted.

Blue Ox also instructs you to check the Ford Transit’s own tow rating in the vehicle owner’s manual, because it may be lower than the hitch, and to tow to whichever figure is less. The hitch is steel with a textured black powder coat applied over an e-coat, and Blue Ox states it meets SAE J684 and carries a limited lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can the BXH1004 tow?

It depends on the configuration. Blue Ox rates the BXH1004 at 6,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 900 pounds tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch, and 8,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 1,200 pounds tongue weight when used with weight-distribution equipment. Blue Ox also says to check the vehicle’s own tow rating and tow to whichever figure is lower.

What is the difference between the weight-carrying and weight-distributing ratings?

Weight carrying is the trailer coupled directly to the hitch ball with no spring bars, and it is the lower of the two ratings. Weight distributing is the same hitch used together with a weight-distribution system, which spreads tongue load across the axles. The higher 8,000 lb figure applies only when that equipment is fitted.

Which vehicles does it fit?

Blue Ox lists the BXH1004 for the 2022–2024 Ford Transit. It is a vehicle-specific hitch, so confirm your model year before ordering.

What receiver size does it take?

A 2-inch receiver opening, which is the standard Class III size.
