Op here. It's a v6. What kind of WD hitch should I lean towards. Should I be concerned with the 8000 GCVW rating.
Of course you shouldn't ignore the vehicle's GCVWR as that's the absolute maximum the vehicle and trailer together, fully loaded, are rated to ever weigh. Sorry, I can't help you any more with this as you're clearly determined to ignore the known facts of the situation - i.e. your V6 Explorer is inadequate for safely towing this trailer. :(
