I plan to pull a 6x10 cargo trailer with a few motorcycles in in, behind my truck/camper. Maybe 2000 lbs max loaded with 200-300 lb tongue weight. I was not looking to upgrade to a full super truss, even though that's the preferred solution. I would like to go with a 34" curt 2.5" to 2" reducer/extension for $130 on Amazon.
I was thinking to add stabilizer cable with turnbuckle from the ends of the factory hitch to the chain attachment points on the extension. The ends of the factory hitch are a 3-4" diameter tube so I think a hook can get a decent grip on it at that angle. Of course I'd still use the safety chains as intended. Is this overkill for a trailer this light or a needed upgrade?
Better way to do it without going full super truss?
