What is an RV bumper hitch and what can I tow with it?

An RV bumper hitch mounts to the rear bumper tube of your travel trailer or motorhome and gives you a 2-inch receiver for light-duty towing. Typical uses include a cargo carrier, bike rack, small utility trailer, or a tow-behind grill. Always check your bumper's weight rating and your RV manufacturer's tongue-weight limit before loading, since most factory RV bumpers are rated for light loads only and were not designed as a structural tow point for another trailer.

How do I know which bumper hitch fits my travel trailer?

Measure the outside dimensions of your rear bumper tube before ordering. Most travel trailer bumpers are 4 inch or 4.5 inch square steel tube, and bumper hitches are sized to slide over a specific tube width. Confirm the wall thickness and length of your bumper too, because thin-wall bumpers may need reinforcement before adding a hitch and ball. If you are not sure, text or call our team at 817-984-1852 with your trailer model and a photo of the bumper.

Can I put a trailer ball on my RV bumper hitch?

Yes, most bumper hitches in this collection accept a standard 2-inch shank ball mount, which lets you tow a small utility trailer or boat behind your RV. Double-tow legality varies by state, so verify your local rules before hitting the road. Pair the hitch with a properly rated ball, safety chains, and a wiring harness from our RV electronics collection for trailer lighting connections.

What weight capacity should I look for in a bumper hitch?

Bumper hitches in this collection typically carry 200 to 350 pounds of tongue weight and up to 3,500 pounds of trailer weight, but the real limit is your RV bumper itself. Factory RV bumpers commonly rate at 100 to 200 pounds of vertical load. Match the hitch rating to the lower of the two numbers, and reinforce the bumper with welded gussets if you plan to carry a heavy cargo box or generator.
