My trailer bumper is heavy steel, (welded to the frame). It is 3" deep across the top, 4" in height. Will this hitch work even though only 3" deep?

Not without a back spacer, hitch will move back and forth as it will not clamp/pull back plate as it is welded. 1 inch steel spacer would make up the difference and should work fine, I would just contact a local machine shop and get a 4x4x1 cold roll plate cut...minimal cost

It sounds like it would, you will need a 1" spacer of wood or something though.

It is really made for a 4" square trailer bumper. I suppose if you use some sort of "blocking" material to make up for the missing 1" it might work, but it would have to be put on really tightly. If you did this and the carriage bolts that are supplied were to start loosening, you could have a real disaster.

Won't work. Bumper needs to be 4" square. Maybe shim with some aluminum stock.

The items states:Fits Standard 2" Receiver4.75 tons weight rating (9,500 lbs.)I think the real concern would be the weight limit of the trailer hitch of where you would be installing it based on its class.Hope this helps.

The hitch has been great. I'm sure the brackets will work. Call hitch Source or the manufacturer to confirm bracket size, I'm not around mine currently to measure, but I'm sure you'll be satisfied with the hitch!

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.

alot depends on the positioning of your hitch to begin with. I ended up buying an extra longer receiver that goes into the hitch to make up for the diference of not enouht depth. I've been away on holiday and actually putting on the bike for the first time this afternoon. Don't forsee any trouble.

If your bumper is 4" wide by 2" tall, you will have to get new bolts, they aren't threaded far enough. I'm note sure what you will be using it for, but I would check to make sure the bumper will hold.

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 rise on this hitch is 5-3/4 inch. If you have any other questions we would be happy to help. CodyCamping Connection8665768171

Quick answer: I have a Tahoe and the hitch does not extend past either side of my truck and sticks out less than 3' from the rear.

You have to measure your trailer from front to back. Don't include your hitch portion. Then order accordingly.

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.

If your bumper is 4" wide by 2" tall, you will have to get new bolts, they aren't threaded far enough. But, a 2x4 bumper doesn't have the strength as a 4x4 bumper. I would be concerned with what you are hanging off of the adapter. I have a 4x4 bumper, with a Thule bike rack and 4 bikes it ended up bouncing too much going down the road.

I believe it will. However, to make sure,I would re-look at the dimensions given on the website which show the arm length in the extended position. Also, remember that the arm at the hitch sticks out the back a ways. Thus, you need to do some measuring and calculating.

Extending the shank might adversly effect the weight distribution and sway control of the hitch. I would recommend contacting the engineers at Andersen. You are changing factory specs, so better check first

Yes it will, I even bolted it opposite side of the trailer jack to save room on tongue, one set of bolts that way. Over time it may rust, mine hasn't

Mine fit pretty snug. The manufacturer may have an adapter to fit your trailer hitch. Good luck!

I don't know what size bumper it has or if the bumper is strong enough to hold whatever you plan to carry. It's always recommended to contact the trailer manufacturer to determine if you can attach a bumper hitch to any make, model of trailer.
