If you’re concerned for ultimate safety of the horses, stretch your trailer tongue and hitch directly to the truck, don’t use a hitch extension at all.
No one drives around towing on a hitch extension unless they have to... gee why is that?!!
I haul horses up and down the west coast, 14 at a time, I’m very familiar with what important cargo they are. A horse trailer on a hitch extension behind a Toyota... I wouldn’t do it.
Extensions are always recommended here because they’re a store-bought solution the camper dealers sell. No one wants to do a little welding and custom work.
The people who say it’ll hit the camper and won’t work haven’t ever done it.
