Hi PhotoMike,
Thanks for sharing this! I also own a 19G and was wondering if you knew about the hitch class en specs of the one installed on this Class C.
The original hitch has a sticker that say 5000lbs tow, and 500lbs tongue weight. But there is another sticker on top of if that says 2500/200. I'm not sure if it's CruiseAmerica who put the 2nd sticker to make sure people are not towing anything with the RV. Or is it the manufacturer (Thor?) who limits the tow capacity because the body/frame is modified because it's an RV?
We plan on putting our Scooter (50cc, 220lbs) and two road bikes on the hitch. Overall it might be a bit over 300lbs including the racks.
If it's the RV frame that cannot support what the hitch can support, I might end up modifying the rear so that I have 2 additional "receiver" so that my rack is supported 3-way.
I was looking at that the other day as I was thinking of picking up a small camping trailer for a trip this summer to give another set of beds. Mine also said 500 / 5000 on a sticker but had a note by it that said for temporary towing only and had some other stickers that I could not read (it was too cold to get down and look). I think the first sticker is for the screw on light connectors but it was too cold to investigate further. I will try and look better tonight as I am trying to take off for a couple days and want to take the Ebike for servicing so have to hook up the bike carrier.
