The tongue weight rating does not include the weight of the hitch. The weight of the hitch will be part of the total amount of weight on the back of the vehicle.

Where should you tap into the wiring in a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT Sedan to install a trailer hitch wiring harness?

I have a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT (Wagon) and haven't been able to find a hitch. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? If I am able to find a hitch, I would then try to get the Outback trailer hitch wiring harness from my Subaru dealer. I would expect the wiring in the two cars to be the same, but I suppose they could be different. I noticed the Legacy wagons don't have the rear 12 volt jack that the Outbacks have. This is something I'd like to add too for one of those electric coolers. That would be nifty I think. Thanks . . .

What is tongue weight while towing a boat?

The tongue of the trailer presses down on the trailer hitch, and that is tongue weight. How hard it presses down is a function of the weight in front of the trailer wheels, and how much of the weight is not offset by the weight behind the wheels. If the tongue weight is too great, the rear of the towing vehicle goes down. Too light, and the boat trailer will swing side to side.

How much weight can you tow with a 2006 5.3 liter 4x4 long bed silverado with a 2 in. bumper hitch?

The amount you can tow will depend on the hitch. You probably have a Class III hitch since it has a 2" receiver. The hitch manufacturer will include a rating on the hitch. Most Class III hitches are rated for towing 5000 pounds. They also are rated for putting 500 pounds of downward pressure on the trailer tongue. If you want greater towing capacity, you can add a weight distribution system to the hitch and it will increase you towing capacity by at least 50%. Check the documentation with your hitch to determine the exact towing capacity of your hitch.

Can you tow a pop up trailer with a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited?

Yes. However, the trailer should not exceed the rated towing weight of the vehicle. There are several models of pop-up trailers that are towable for a Jeep Wrangler, CJ-7, etc. The vehicle towing weight should be in the owner's manual--or you can call a Jeep dealer and ask them. Also, the tongue weight of the trailer should not exceed what your hitch is rated for (the tongue weight is how much the hitch of the trailer weighs when you pick it up). Generally, if you can pick up the tongue of the trailer to put it on the ball of the hitch by hand, you don't have to worry about exceeding the tongue rating (unless you can dead-lift more than a couple hundred pounds).

What does tongue weight tell you when towing a boat?

Tongue weight refers to the downward force exerted at the hitch of a trailer when towing a boat. It is crucial for maintaining stability while towing; ideally, tongue weight should be 10-15% of the total trailer weight. Proper tongue weight helps prevent swaying and improves handling, ensuring safer towing conditions. Too little or too much tongue weight can lead to trailer instability and potentially dangerous driving situations.
