Frequently Asked Questions
How much can this hitch tow?
Blue Ox rates it at 4,500 lb gross trailer weight with 675 lb tongue weight. Your vehicle may be rated lower, and the lower of the two figures is the one to work to.
What is the difference between the weight-carrying and weight-distributing ratings?
Weight carrying is a trailer hitched straight to the ball, with the tongue load resting on the back of the tow vehicle. Weight distributing adds spring bars that spread that load across both axles of the vehicle and the trailer. Because the load is spread, the weight-distributing limit is often the higher of the two, but it only applies when a weight-distributing hitch is actually in use.
Does the hitch rating mean my vehicle can tow that much?
No. The hitch rating and the vehicle rating are separate, and they are often different. Blue Ox tests the hitch to the vehicle’s tow ratings and asks you to check the figure in your owner’s manual and use whichever is less.
What is included for installation?
Mounting hardware is supplied, and Blue Ox hitches often include a wiring plug mounting bracket. Installation requirements vary by vehicle, so follow the Blue Ox instruction sheet for this part number.
