Trailer Hitch Extension Options For Ford Super Duty With 3 Inch Hitch

Question:

The hitch on my new F350 dually is 3inch square and came with a reducer sleeve which takes it down to 2.5 square. I tow with hitch with a 2.5 shank that has stabilizer bars and matches up perfectly with the equipment on the dually The problem I am trying to fix is: when I am hooked up to RV trailer, I cant lower the tail gate as it hits the jack on the trailer hitch. Should I look for a 3 or 2.5 extension and where do I look to get one?

There are a few options for a trailer hitch extension that are fits for the 3 inch hitch on your 2021 Ford F-350, from TorkLift. There are a number of different lengths available so you can choose the one that you need:

- 36" Long: TorkLift Cannon Hitch Extension - 3" Ford Super Duty Factory Hitch # TLE1636

- 42" Long: TorkLift Cannon Hitch Extension - 3" Ford Super Duty Factory Hitch # TLE1642

- 48" Long: TorkLift Cannon Hitch Extension - 3" Ford Super Duty Factory Hitch # TLE1648

These extensions fit the Ford 3" factory hitches, and also act as a reducer, with 2-1/2" receivers on the ends.
