Montana receiver

I recently purchased a new Montana 5er and would like to pull a small trailer with RZR on it. Is the Montana receiver strong enough. I pulled the same trailer behind my old Cougar with no problem, but I had the receiver installed.

  • Thanks for your reply. Ours has a 2” receiver and is cross welded to frame. My question arises because camping world said I could pull 3500 lbs but tag on hitch says 200. I think it’s an insurance disclaimer but wanted to check with others
  • Check your owner’s booklet. It should give max towing weights.
  • What size receiver is on your Monty? When we had our '10 in came with a light weight cheap 1 1/4" receiver that wouldn't hardly hold a bike rack.
    I would advise having a good 2" receiver installed with proper bracing before pulling anything behind the Monty.
