The present trailer hitch
assembly addresses the problem of lost tongue weight support and
towing capacity when a person adds an extension to a trailer hitch for adding a slide-in camper to a
truck or for moving a trailer back a little to increase the
turning radius. Generally, when such an extension is utilized, the
towing capacity of the vehicle to which the extension is attached is downgraded, due to the lengthening of the overall trailer hitch
assembly and lack of structural support. Disclosed herein is a trailer hitch
assembly that addresses this problem by providing extra structural support to boost this lack of structural support.
