Reviving this thread as I liked the title for future readers and wanted some feedback. According to Newell #458 has a hitch rated at 5000 lbs. Sounds like there was the base hitch and then an option for one that went to 10-12k. I have a potential buyer looking to tow his trailer w/car that weighs in at 6500 so we're technically over as it stands. Has any attempted to beef up the original hitch?

Edit. Time for a good laugh. Upon further discussion with Newell the 5000 being referenced by them was referring to tongue weight. Problem solved.
