OEM hitch with 36" extension?

The extension is for 2 1/2" receivers though. That's the issue I have. Can't seem to find one that long for a 2"

Any of the extensions other than a SuperTruss will require fabrication to mount the side chains. I think you may have to change rear tie downs even if you go with a Curt receiver.

If you decide go with the Torklift setup, get the part numbers you need off their site and search prices on those part numbers. Ballpark prices should be $500 for the SuperHitch, $500 for the SuperTruss and $250 for the tie downs.

When I upgraded my Ford receiver, I was able to sell my old OEM receiver locally for over $100. That may at least take a little sting out of your upgrade cost. This is my second SuperHitch, SuperTruss and set of FastGuns so I am aware that it is not the cheapest option, but it has been the best option for my use.

I just couldn't find any 24" extensions for 2" receivers. Specially not with chains etc. I might talk to my local guy but I'm also not sure 24" is enough with the back bumper on the camper.

Seems like I really need a 36" min extension so I may just have to bite the bullet and go with the super hitch but then I also have to get new rear tie downs -- grrr

The AF 990 is a 10' camper, so you should be able to use an extension around 24" - My 9' AF811 required a 28" extension on my short bed Ford.



With the weight you want to tow, you will not need a SuperHitch unless you have later plans for something heavier. If you can stay with 2' extension, I think the OEM hitch will handle the leverage of load. I would still use side chains on the extension to limit lateral forces on the receiver.

If you have use a longer extension, I would not put my trust in the OEM receiver. You could replace it with 2.5" Titan and 2.5" extension, but I would replace it a SuperHitch at this point and not worry about having enough capacity in the future and having to do it again.

I was trying to find a Reese that had a similar super truss style extension. The truck is a 2010 F350 SD 4x4

I'm no expert, but I'd be a bit leery of that. I can't tell the brand of the truck, but some of the GM's used to have a reputation for breaking hitches without an extension. It is be the bending moment on the hitch that is the problem. I'd change over to a large 2-1/2" Reese, plenty strong enough and much lower price than the Torklift.

Manufacturers of 36 inch extensions for 2 inch receivers say...?
