Hitch Extension????

Hi Everyone,

I have a '98 Safari (25) that I pull behind my f250 diesel. On my first outing (the trailer was purchased this year), I discovered that I can not fully open the tailgate due to it's hitting the electric jack.

Is anyone aware of a hitch extension that can safely push the hitch back a foot or so. My receiver is a Super Hitch, and is build with two ports, an upper and lower. I have a 3 foot extension that I use when the camper is on and pulling the boat, but this will only handle about 400 pounds of tongue weight.

I am extremely hesitant to do anything with the AS unless I know it is safe!!!

Thanks in advance for the wealth of knowledge that I suspect will be forthcoming!

Steve
