My comment won't be very useful to you...but I am wondering if you could tell me the specs for the tubing you plan to use in the hitch. Thanks in advance.
My receiver hitch has the tubes exposed on the ends and 2” square tubing slides perfectly inside of it. I will use heavy wall (.250) tube and a hydraulic bender for the appropriate angle.
I am planning on a fairly short T/C like the Palomino HS 8801 so only a very short hitch extension would be needed if any for my boat/trailer (3500# max)
If I thought I would ever put a bigger camper on the truck I would swap my hitch out for a super hitch and the truss extension— but don’t think I’ll ever need it.
