Looking for some help. I currently use a receiver mounted bike rack to carry our e-bikes. I'd like to also pull a small trailer at the same time. Has anybody welded a second receiver tube below the factory one? Is that even a reasonable idea?

Thanks,
It would help if you posted year, make and model of RV since you don't have that information in your profile.

my 2 cents I went with the Roadmaster one, American steel, solid welds. They are so much beefier than most of the ones listed on etrailer or some other site.
If the original hitch is not rated to tow then don’t do it. Some rear hitches are only rated for carrying not towing.
This thread is in the General Motorhome Discussion > Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis forum. The OP did not disclose their RV type, but I'm pretty sure we're discussing a motorhome chassis. Are there Forest River MBS (class 3 truck) motorhomes which have hitches that are not rated for towing? I'm not aware of any.
