Randy,

The weight carry rating applies. 5000#

Thank you for contacting the Technical Group.

This sure doesn't make sense, the hitch has to withstand 6000 lbs of tug even with weight distribution. Oh well, I know zip about the physics of towing. I'll certainly take their word for it!

So now the question becomes, can the current hitch be economically replaced with one with higher capacity - hopefully with the same bolt pattern as the Draw-tite.

For any of you with a newer Axis - if you have the opportunity would you take a gander at your hitch and let me know who makes it? And if you want to earn my undying gratitude, tell me what the bolt-pattern is, assuming it is bolted on. On mine, each side has three bolts spaced about 3 inches on center.

Draw-tite does not list a heavier version of their motorhome hitch, but perhaps it is one of theirs.

Regards,

Randy

How about one for the 350 and or the 450??? Pick up trucks
