Anybody have the exact numbers on what our hitch is rated for weight wise? Both static and WDH.

I dont believe using a WD setup increases any capacities. That only helps the tow vehicle spread the load across both axles and as a side benefit, reduces TV squat and helps level the trailer.

Many of the aftermarket reciever have 2 ratings. A lower rating for weight carrying and a higher number for weight distributing.
