![]() The receiver is the same one Toyota has installed with what use to be called the towing package and now is standard on Tundras since 2008. If there is an option to have larger brakes on a specific trailer and better tires spend your money there. The brake controler, hitch, tires, and the trailers brakes are the most important aspect of the trailer not how nice the kitchen looks. There are lots of models out there much less expensive. This is an area I choose not to skimp on. Purchase the one you feel comfortable with. I highly recommend doing your research on weight distribution/anti sway hitches prior to purchasing a trailer. When you purchase a trailer the dealer will set you up with a weight distribution hitch. The good news is you will not be hauling a travel trailer with that ball and hitch, hopefully! They also have weight ratings and you will want one rated at 10,000 lbs. The ball you did not show but it may only be a 5000 lbs. Your hitch you show a picture of is rated at 600 lbs tongue weight as it shows and 6000 lbs. Then when Toyota lets us down with some hybrid Tundra with weak GVRW as I am expecting, then go buy a Ford F350 single rear wheel 6.7L as I am planning to do.īased on your pictures you have a Toyota factory class III/4 receiver.

There are many people you would not choose to be around as there are vehicles towing down the road you purposly steer clear of. Just look at our lost American culture and many vehicles towing down the road. You can get lost in the numbers.īalance is a key issue when towing and in life. Airstream almost always on mountain roads of the Sierra Nevada/ Cascade mountains and Coast ranges with absolutely no issues. However, I also have two kids almost adults and a 120lb. My truck with the setup I have listed in my signature and tow chains/straps, tire chains, shovels, MOLLY racks, Roto Paks, myself and one of my dogs in the truck it weighs 7080lbs. and a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 7200 lbs. I did a quick check and the TRD Pro has the same tow ratings as the rest of the 5.7 Tundras with the same cab configurations. Is that what your truck came from the factory with? Or did someone install an after market class III hitch instead of a class III/4 or a 5. This range leaves many options for travel trailers that the Tundra can haul without any problems.With the hitch stating 600 lbs tongue weight and 6000 lb capacity it appears you have a class III hitch.
