The class 2 hitch will tow 3400 lb.I found that a V8 with a class 3 or 4 and transmission cooler will tow 7000 lb
Make sure to check the ball size and hitch size are the same first. Other then that yes, it just means the ball can withstand less weight then the receiver hitch.
Yes there are. There are 3 classes of hitch, class III can tow up to 5,000 pounds (2,300 kg) so I think it can tow a truck. So if you want to buy a hitch, make sure it's class III.
No. A class II hitch is rated to 3,500 lbs. A class III may be rated the same, but is often rated at 5,000 lbs or higher. A class III hitch has a 2" receiver opening which allows you to carry a larger bike rack, cargo rack... The class II has a 1-1/4" opening which limits it's usefulness for carrying accessories.
about 7,000 pounds

It is a class/rating given that lets you know how much the hitch can safely tow. class I - up t0 2,000lbs. class II - up to 3,500lbs. class III - up to 5,000lbs. class IV - up to 10,000lbs. All hitches will say the max tongue/tow amount. Tongue wt. is the vertical load on the hitch normally 10%, Example a 5,000 class 3 usually has a tongue wieght of 500lbs. Other factors are the rating of the drawbar, the mount that goes into the hitch and the ball/ball size. Ball sizes are 1 7/8, 2 and 2 5/16 inches A weight distributing hitch is a special drawbar that has spring steel arms that attach to the trailer being towed to control swaybar/loads on the hitch/ball and allows for a higher capacity, avail. on certain hitches. ALL VEHICLES, have a max load recommended by the manufacturer and should be followed for safe towing.
