In looking at BarneyS's pictures I can see it's possible that your hitch has a single rating. Typically the weight differences are a ways apart, but in the second picture Barney posted the two weights are very close together.
Just to be sure it's clear though; we're talking about a sticker stuck on the receiver hitch that is bolted to the frame of the tow vehicle. We are not referring to the part that you can pull the pin and remove from the truck. On my Suburban the sticker states weight carrying 500lbs, weight distribution 1,000 lbs. Does your or your friends truck have a sticker on the hitch that states the weights, or is there only information in the owners manual?
