Who here is using a hitch extension?
I was curious who here was using a hitch extension to tow a small boat, trailer etc. Not interested in SuperHitch as this isn't feasible to me at this time. I am looking to haul some kayak's and...

I tow a small kayak/gear trailer
I use a step down sleeve from my 2 1/2" class V receiver to a 2"
You are correct, a 2" extension is a class III rating and max length is 18"
I then use a 9" adjustable drop hitch with 2" ball on the end, with "wobble stoppers" on both extensions.
The kayak trailer should have an extended tongue to clear your camper in tight turns and backing up. Most kayak/gear trailers (combined weight are less than 1500 lbs) and should tow fine.
