Extending the tongue would have been so much easier and cost effective. I need to rule that out before placing an order for the super hitch.
You can go to higher capacity 18s as well. The disadvantage of just extending the tongue is you have to extend all that you tow, and couldn’t use it for a luggage rack/bike rack etc. I have a 2 1/2” extension that is 18 inches long. It’s just long enough to work with my 9 1/2 ft model camper. It doesn’t extend past the camper bumper so it’s not a tripping hazard. I had to cut a 24” extension down.
If you have the 3” hitch, it would certainly be strong enough although I think the 18 would as well. Might be an option for you.
