New Auxillary Hitch on 2009 3000RK

Anyone have a 2009 Monty with the auxillary hitch installed on the rear?

I am curious to find out for sure if it is a 1 1/4" or 2" - I had heard earlier that it was the smaller hitch. That's ok.

Now into some details - What is the distance from the hitch receiver to the rear of the Monty? In other words, how long of a hitch insert will I need to be able to hang a bike rack or storage box (generator) on the back?

I am guessing it could be about a foot or 18"?

And.....what is the weight restriction on the hitch and a throw of that distance?


Thanks - Bill

Today, after speaking to a very helpful Keystone rep, Tom Mantague, I answered my own question.

The new hitch is a 1 1/4 Class I hitch that will hold 200# tongue weight and tow up to 2000#.

Now I want to find a combo bike rack and generator box......that will weigh less than 200# loaded....
