★ Top Answer
The 2005 Ford Explorer is equipped with a Class III hidden trailer hitch that has a 2" receiver opening. Class III hitches, designed for weight distribution, can handle up to 10,000 lbs. of gross trailer weight (GTW) with a maximum trailer tongue weight (TW) of 1000 lbs. Typically, a Class III hitch features a 2" square receiver opening. It's important to note that a higher-class drawbar does not increase the hitch's towing capacity. Hitch classes are classified based on their maximum weight capacity and receiver opening size, ranging from Class I to Class V. Each class offers unique capabilities and is designed for specific applications.
