              Used to increase my load carrying capacity. It really helps when towing my boat. The rear bumper was almost on the ground before, now the ride is level and firm.

                  The tongue weight of the trailer is really the question. The tongue weight is probable around 500-600 pounds and these would work just fine.

                  Answered on 4/30/2010 by Ray from Illinois
                • A:

                  It depends on tongue weight. Tongue weight of trailer is less then actual weight of trailer. Tongue weight is weight placed on trailer hitch to vehicle.
