*Important Notes
-The competitor product was acquired from the original purchaser after 6 months of use.
-The Trail Swing prototype shown had similar 6 months of use outdoors in the same environment of Southern California.
-4130 Chromoly is mentioned as high carbon content in the video. However this is still considered a "low carbon steel." We are are portraying that it is a higher carbon content than the mild steel we are comparing it to.
-Common Misconception. "chromoly snaps and steel bends, I would rather have steel." Consider that chromoly is almost 2 times the strength of mild steel. Also consider that chromoly has a higher modulus of elasticity. So not only is it stronger, but it can also bend more before it breaks.
-"Cut my tow rating in half!? That can't be right!" The statement in the video is a very general statement. The important factor to consider is when adding an extension to your tow hitch you are adding a lever which exerts stronger forces. Many tow accessory companies such as Curt mention that you should reduce your vehicle tow rating by 50% when using their 8" extension. Your vehicle tow rating and your vehicle itself should be considered when applying this general rule. For example, a body on frame truck may have a more solid tow hitch connection than a unibody frame.
