If Thor knew how to reinforce it correctly, why wouldn’t they be doing it as a standard design revision? I doubt you’re the first to question this low weight rating.
The video droregon referred to does show 500 pound load limit. I would start by trying to determine if that rig was built before or after yours. If built before yours, it suggests that Thor may have experienced problems/failures and had to derate load capacity. If built after yours, it suggest Thor found a way to redesign for the higher 500-pound load capacity.
