great product
perfect. I needed to move my hitch ball back 4 inches so my tailgate would not hit the trailer jack. works perfect. Don't have to worry about dropping tailgate down on jack and scratching the paint or putting a dent on the tailgate

NOT to be used for towing
Update 9/9/25: I learned a lesson on this purchase and it's my fault, not the product. Rating updated to 5 stars. The purpose of this extender is to allow an accessory to be used (such as a bike rack or cargo carrier) where an object like a spare tire might prevent it from fitting. I was trying to use a tow hitch in the extender on a UTV, not for towing, but to mount a set of backup lights to and the gussets on the receiver prevented the light bracket from fitting properly. It is my understanding that an extension is NOT to be used for towing (which makes perfect sense really) and that's why the holes don't line up. Lesson learned! Appeared to be of high quality and fit right into my 2â receiver. Unfortunately, the hole on the outside end is about 1/4â off and I canât install my hitch or bike rack. Returned it and trying a different brand.

Works with my car carrier
The product seems well built and gave me the clearance from my spare tire on my Jeep CJ7 for my car carrier. The extension was the exact distance needed. Not sure on the weight load yet but I figure it should be able to handle the carrier limit of 400lbs. Haven't tried it with a trailer yet but I would have to guess it would work. Plus the price under $20 was reasonable.

Works great.
As described. Includes hitch pin. Well painted with no scuffs or scratches.

Well made. Slightly loose.
Really solidly made. Paint is good. I am afraid it will rattle if not loaded as utterly slightly smaller than the hitch shaft. I bought a lock so did not use the supplied pin.

Should have purchased years ago
I would see these things and wonder why you'd need this. After having it, I can see why you need it! On every trailer I've used it on, it makes backing up a trailer much easier and less chance of having the trailer jack knife into your bumper. I set up my Ford Brake Assist while using it and it makes the system work even better than without it.
