24 Inch Hitch Extender Under The TC
Another issue I am trying to figure out with my new TC. Now that I've added the TC, the hitch receiver is "buried" under the TC's steps. There is now 24" from the face of the truck's hitch receiver ...

Extending the tongue on the trailer won't work for me ... as I have two different trailers I'd like to tow behind at different times depending on my needs.
Second, by extending the trailer tongue only, you could only do it if you had a single channel design leading up to the trailer tongue's coupler. If you had an "A" frame design culminating at the coupler (like my cargo trailer has), I suspect you run the risk of increasing the contact between the TC's bumper and the "A" frame trailer tongue on sharper turns that include inclines i.e. like turning into a gas station that has a stepper driveway leading into it.
The linky showing the 24" extension is for a 2 1/2 inch set-up ... unfortunately mine is a 2" hitch receiver ... won't work.
