Bumper Pull Hitch
For bumper pull trailers, you need a trailer hitch that is frame mounted to the rear of your vehicle. There are 5 classes of trailer hitches. They are based upon
the weight that the hitch can carry. The class 1 hitch can carry 2,000 lbs. and the class 2 can carry 3,500 lbs.
The class 3 hitch is the most common. This is a 2" receiver and can range in towing capacity from 3,500 lbs. to 12,000 lbs. Your vehicle will be the limiting factor
on this as you can only tow what the vehicle can, so you will want to check your owner's manual to see the true towing capacity of your vehicle.
The class 4 & 5 hitches are for Full Size 3/4 & 1 Ton trucks. Some models can handle up to 24,000 lbs.
