Rated for 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight, it allows simultaneous towing and accessory mounting while protecting your vehicle from damage. Crafted from high-strength steel with a corrosion-resistant black powder coat, it ensures durability and reliability for professional-grade towing needs. ## Description No matter what you are towing, CURT towing equipment is intended to get you from point A to point B and to have peace of mind while doing so. Our hitch extenders are no exception. When you have spacing issues with your hitch-mounted accessories such as a bike rack or cargo carrier, or you need to give your ball mount and trailer coupler a little extra room, a CURT hitch extender can help. Hitch extensions are simply receiver tubes that insert into your trailer hitch to add a certain amount of clearance for your vehicle's bumper or spare tire mounted on the back. A hitch extender makes it very easy to give your tow load the room that it requires and helps protect your vehicle from scuffs, scratches and even dents. This special dual receiver hitch extension is designed to fit a 2" x 2" receiver tube opening. It not only extends the receiver by 8" but also allows you to simultaneously tow a trailer and mount a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo. It has a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 lbs. and tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs. The top receiver is not intended for towing a trailer. CURT hitch extenders, like our ball mounts and trailer hitches, are crafted to be durable and dependable. In addition to the strong steel construction and precise welding, our trailer hitch extenders receive a gloss black powder coat for ongoing prevention of rust, chipping and UV damage. Review: Excellent Product, Amazing Service - Was looking for one of these, thought this one looked a bit wimpy in the pictures but, because I already own several Curt products and know better, I ordered it. Just before midnight, Thursday. Price was good, and the vendor, Trends Auto, provides free shipping which was good because this was not eligible for my Prime shipping. Because I was in a hurry to get it, I sent Trends Auto an email asking that they ship quickly. I received a prompt reply promising they would do what they could, got it Saturday morning. Now, I often get packages from Georgia to my home in NC and they always seem to arrive super quickly so I'm not sure that Trends Auto bent over backwards but at the very least they sure didn't mess around either. Thank you Trend Auto employee. Just to be clear, I did not pay for or ask for expedited shipping ... shipping was free and all I asked for was a little consideration. Got it, like I said, the very next day, Saturday. As for the receiver extension, it is heavy duty as hell. Much more so than one would think given the tendency for these to be used by someone towing and at the same time carrying a bike rack. Top quality with respect to the welds and finish. Fair amount of space between the top and bottom receivers, more than appears from the pictures. If you have a winch bolted to a receiver platform, which is how I'm going to use it, then THIS is the dual receiver extension to get. Included is a heavy duty pin and clip ... something I missed when reading the ad. Again, don't be deceived by the picture, any discussion of bike racks, or the posted weight limits ... this is a very, very heavy duty piece and I have no doubt I could break or bend a dozen pins before I break this extension. Once again, EXCELLENT product, Curt, and EXCELLENT service first time out, Trends Auto. Edit 4/7/12: Used a 8500# winch to pull a tree, roots and all, onto a car trailer. Root ball was 5-6' across, the whole thing pretty much used up the trailer. Heavy, heavy, heavy. Had the winch on a hitch platform and the platform in this dual extension. Back of the dually was wrenched over, the trailer was groaning like it was gonna break in a hundred pieces, winch and this piece and the hitch were twisting back and forth. Winch maxed out a couple of times. Not a problem ... this Curt piece took the load. Plain and simple. Great product. Review: Excellent for Bike Rack on Jeep Wrangler to Clear the Spare Tire! - I bought this because I have the Swagman 5 Bike rack and it would not clear the (31x10.50x15) spare tire on my 2003 Jeep Wrangler TJ. I have mounted a Curt Man. class III tow hitch just for hauling bicycles and a cargo rack, nothing more as my Jeep is a 4 cylinder and cannot tow anything much larger than an empty garden trailer LOL. Anyway, it works perfectly for this and allows the bike rack pole to clear by about 4". The top piece is about 2-3" below the tire also and the tailgate clears it and will still open with it in! This piece is BUILT extremely well! Also note, the piece that goes into your receiver is a SOLID hunk of metal, NOT hollow! Curt does it again with a super nice, well-made piece of equipment! ## Features - HIGHLY VERSATILE - Provides stacked 2" openings for a ball mount and compatible accessory; the upper opening is accessory-only and must not be used for towing. - DEPENDABLE STRENGTH - The lower opening is rated for 3,500 lbs. GTW and 350 lbs. tongue weight, limited to the lowest-rated towing component. - READY TO TOW - The 2" shank extends the connection approximately 8" and provides a 5-13/16" rise; verify clearance and setup height before ordering. - CORROSION-RESISTANT - High-strength steel is protected with a durable black powder coat to help resist rain, dirt, road salt and outdoor exposure. - EASY TO INSTALL - Insert the shank into a compatible receiver and secure it with a properly rated hitch pin and clip, sold separately. ## Images ![CURT 45792 Dual Receiver Hitch Extension, 2" Shank, 3,500 lbs., 8" Long | Provides 5-13/16" Rise; Lower Opening Supports Towing; Upper Opening Is Accessory-Only; Hitch Pin and Clip Sold Separately - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71uzmsq7BiL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Product, Amazing Service *by M***K on March 10, 2012* Was looking for one of these, thought this one looked a bit wimpy in the pictures but, because I already own several Curt products and know better, I ordered it.

I have mounted a Curt Man. class III tow hitch just for hauling bicycles and a cargo rack, nothing more as my Jeep is a 4 cylinder and cannot tow anything much larger than an empty garden trailer LOL.

This piece is BUILT extremely well! Also note, the piece that goes into your receiver is a SOLID hunk of metal, NOT hollow! Curt does it again with a super nice, well-made piece of equipment! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Built almost the way I would have built one. *by G***O on July 10, 2017* I was having serious debate as to which dual receiver extender to buy. Looking at some others and what appears to be catastrophic failures I almost went out and bought the materials to make my own. But, before I did I went with the Curt as it's an actual brand name there would at least be some quality control. That being said I knew I made the right decision as soon as I felt the weight when I picked up the package. This thing is beast. The tongue is solid square bar which extends about 3" into the receiver tube. The receiver tube had holes drilled in on the sides which were filled with weld in addition to the rear part of the receiver tube being welded to the tongue. The two receivers as well as the horizontal extension are 3/16" steel. Also, as one can see, both receiver tubes have the lip reinforced. Lastly, this item came with a hitch pin with clip (behind that sticker you see on the lower receiver in the product pic). I'm actually not planning on towing anything, just going to mount a bicycle carrier on top and a aluminum cargo carrier on the bottom. I now feel I can drive worry free knowing that I won't have to look in the rear-view mirror seeing cars dodging bikes and scattered clothing on the highway. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/6279634-curt-45792-dual-receiver-hitch-extension-2-shank-3-500](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/6279634-curt-45792-dual-receiver-hitch-extension-2-shank-3-500) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
