Dodge Caravan Trailer Hitch For Ultimate Family Getaways

When you add a camper trailer to the spacious Dodge Caravan it's hard to beat as the ultimate family vacation setup. The Dodge Caravan trailer hitch has the potential to tow a reasonable lightweight camper trailer with the option to go bigger with the addition of a weight distribution system.

The Dodge Caravan towing capacity and tow hitch setup is dependent upon the particular year and the size of the engine. There is the van with the 3.8L, V6 engine which has the best towing abilities, the 3.3L, V6 engine and the baby 2.4L with its 4-cylinder engine.

The Dodge Caravan models are all set to receive Class I to Class III tow hitches with an easy, no-drill installation. Check your owner's manual to get the essential details on your vehicle's towing capacities. This will help you choose a trailer that won't require that you trade in your van in order to tow it. The most recent model works well with a Class III 'receiver style' hitch that accepts a variety of sizes in standard 2" ball mounts that are typically sold separately. This allows easy adjustments of the hitchball height.

The hitch has a GTW of 3000lbs that improves to 5000lbs with a full weight distribution system. Older models have a smaller towing capacity with a GTW of 2000lbs and the option to use a weight distribution system to up the capacity to 4,000lbs.

The Dodge Caravan trailer hitch is custom designed with a sturdy construction and a hardwearing powder coated surface for all weather wear. It comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
