Pretty cool I like it.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Glad you like it. It has allowed me to bring more cargo

[@ranak9534]

i read somewhere that if you add an extender then you have to reduce the max cargo weight by 50%. So for 4runner it would be about 250lb and this includes the weight of extender, cargo carrier and the cargo.

[@OtzleeExplains]

Thanks for the great input, I’ll keep that in mind

[@ashresearcher]

Isn’t it too long and putting too much leverage on the tow hitch?

[@OtzleeExplains]

I took it last month to a pretty rugged trail with more weight and it handled fine. I did scratch the bottom on certain boulders due to the length of the carrier but overall it was fine. I normally wouldn't take this on such a rugged trail but I had spotters.

[@ashresearcher]

@@OtzleeExplains wow. Nice! Whats the advantage compared with an offroad trailer?

[@DJTruth_1970]

I wouldn’t put more that 50-75 lbs on it extended that far, too much stress…

Toyota 4Runner has max tounge weight of around 500lb. So you can load that amount of weight say if using a bike rack + bikes or other stuff. In this case since an extender is being used, the forces are much larger. It is like if you have wrench set, for smaller nuts the wrench is smaller in length as the nut diameter increases the wrench length increases to give you more leverage. So you are right. The same rule applies here. The longer the extender less force is required to damage the hitch. Typical extenders are 6 to 9 inches and their manuals say reduce the tounge capacity by 50%
