Hi,<br /><br />I need to purchase a hitch for my 2002 chrysler town and country. I am not sure whether to go for a class I rated at 2000LB GVW and 200LB TW or a class II rated at 3,500LB GVW and 300LB TW.<br /><br />My boat is a 1988 Stingray SVB176. Total weight of the boat is 1865LB. The trailer is a Southern Draw and it has a sticker on it saying:<br /><br />Gross vehicle weight 2800LB<br />Gross axle weight 3500LB<br /><br />When choosing a class of hitch do you just have to know the weight of what is on the trailer, ie the boat? Or do I need to get a hitch with a capacity over that of the GVW of the trailer, which would be the class II.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br /> ![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
