It works. 2023 f150 Powerboost. 2023 Tab 400 BD. Do need to rotate jack handle just a smidge when opening or closing. Might trim it. Otherwise, I am a happy camper!

I have basically the same set-up...but rotated my jack crank to the opposite side.
Also , what did you do for the safety chain length ? Mine are a bit too short to reach the hitch now after the extended receiver .
This will also give just a little extra room to prevent the truck from contacting our Sea Biscuit extra tongue boxes (like yours) . Already slightly "jack knifed" into a box when turning sharply !

Hitch receivers are typically 5" deep, and let's say the ball is typically 5" behind the back edge of the hitch receiver. With a 500 lb tongue load on the ball you have:
1000 lbs down on the back edge of the receiver
500 lbs up on the front edge of the receiver.
Extend the ball/hitch 5" further back and those loads become:
1500 lbs on the back edge
1000 lbs on the front edge
If folks are going to use a hitch extender without reducing tongue load, at least attach the safety chains to something other than the hitch receiver...

I paid a lot of money for my truck and didn't want to ding up the tailgate. I also didn't feel like disconnecting and reconnecting the trailer everytime we stopped for ice or wanted to get something out of the cooler. 'Different stroke' I guess!
