MaxxHaul 50833 2 x 2 inch Trailer Hitch Receiver Extender 7

The MAXXHAUL 50833 trailer hitch receiver extender increases your hitch reach by 7 inches with a 2" x 2" tube and supports up to 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight.

When your existing hitch position keeps accessories or trailers too close to the vehicle, a short, heavy-duty extender can give the clearance you need without swapping the entire hitch. The MAXXHAUL 50833 is a compact 7-inch extension that slides into a standard 2" receiver and comes with a 5/8" hitch pin and clip for a complete, ready-to-install setup. Built from sturdy materials and finished for corrosion resistance, it’s engineered to handle light- to medium-duty towing tasks where modest additional distance is required.

How does this extender change my towing setup?

Adding the MAXXHAUL extender increases the horizontal distance between the vehicle hitch and the trailer or accessory, which helps with clearance, reduces interference, and makes some accessory combinations possible. It keeps the tow load within the rated limits for safe operation when used according to specifications.

• 7-inch extension length for immediate extra reach
• Fits standard 2" x 2" receiver tubes and accessories
• Includes 5/8" hitch pin and clip for secure attachment
• Rated 3,500 lbs GTW and 350 lbs tongue weight (TW)

Will this fit my hitch accessories and mounting hardware?

The MAXXHAUL 50833 uses the common 2" square receiver size, so it works with most bike racks, cargo carriers, and ball mounts designed for 2" receivers. Ensure your accessory’s shank length and class, plus your vehicle’s hitch rating, match the extender’s limits before towing.

• 2" x 2" receiver tube compatibility for broad accessory support
• Designed to accept typical 2" shank accessories without modification
• Check combined accessory and extension load against vehicle hitch rating
• Installed with the supplied 5/8" pin and clip for immediate use

Is the extender durable enough for regular towing use?

MAXXHAUL manufactures this extender from robust steel and applies a protective finish to resist wear and the elements. Its ratings—3,500 lbs GTW and 350 lbs TW—indicate suitability for many day-to-day towing tasks, trailers, and hitch-mounted accessories when used within those limits.

• Heavy-gauge steel construction for strength under load
• Protective coating to limit corrosion and surface wear
• Precision-fit square tubing to minimize play and wobble
• Supplied pin and clip sized to the receiver for secure locking

How do I install and maintain the MAXXHAUL hitch extender?

Installation is straightforward: slide the extender into your 2" receiver, align the pinholes, and insert the included 5/8" hitch pin and clip. Regular inspection and light maintenance extend service life—clean contact points and check fasteners before each trip.

• Slide into a 2" receiver and secure with the supplied 5/8" pin and clip
• Confirm pinhole alignment and full insertion before towing
• Inspect for rust, cracks, or looseness periodically
• Keep mating surfaces clean and lightly lubricated if needed

Who is this for: The MAXXHAUL 50833 extension suits drivers who need a compact, reliable way to increase hitch reach for bike racks, cargo carriers, small trailers, or to provide extra clearance for rear-mounted accessories. It’s a practical choice for weekend haulers, recreational vehicle owners, and anyone whose 2" hitch requires a modest extension while staying within a 3,500 lb GTW rating.
