With 3" receiver you are fooling around using 2.5" extension with reducers.
I bought 3 ft of 3" tubing for $35 and per rough calculation the 3" tubing is stronger than double bars SuperTruss.
Lighter too. The only issue with 3" tubing is that it has weld along the inside, but since I was using reducer for my 2" ball mount, I just grind notch in the reducer.
I don't really understand the above - The Supertruss lower truss bar is solid cast. I am no structural engineer but I cannot agree that a 3ft tube of welded steel is stronger than a trussed set with a solid lower truss..... but you are right; the Supertruss is heavy.
The hitch on the truck comes only as 2.5 not 3 inch, so you are placing the 3 inch OVER the adapter and the ball mount?
