I've got a '02 4Runner and don't know what my towing capacity is on my hitch. Does anyone know? Its not in my manual either.

Reason: Thinking about renting a open utility trailer from U-Haul to haul about 1 ton of mulch. Would it be a Class 1 (2,500 lbs), Class 2 (3,500 lbs) or Class 3 (5,000 lbs)?

Any help or info would be appreciated.

Class III 2"

 

You're positive its a Class 3??

 

:rolleyes: Factory installed hitch, class III 2" 5,000lbs (V-6 equipped).

 

i 2nd that recommendation

 

ditto,my dad borrowed my Runner this summer to haul 1/2 of mulch and my baby did fine. It's class 3 2" receiver if it's factory installed.

 

THANKS ALL, NOW I CAN BE A LANDSCAPER FOR A FEW DAYS!!

HA!

 

The towing capacity of a 2nd Gen 4Runner with a 3.0 is 3500 #. I know because I asked the salesman that question when i bought my 95 and he said 5000#. I was so pi$$ed off when I read the manual and it said 3500#, they wanted to give me my money back. I decided to keep it anyway...

And it had a 2" Reese receiver that plainly said 3500# when I went to look...


AW ˟˟˟˟˟...I got new glasses today and rhought it said '92... :pat:
