I have a 2020 Ranger with the factory trailer tow package . The tow bar is rated for hitch weight of 750 lbs and tow capacity of 7500 lbs. I was considering replacing the tow bar with a unit from Draw-Tite that is rated at 1250 lbs of hitch weight and 7500 lbs of tow capacity. I do not for see me exceeding the original spec of 750 lbs of hitch weight by much - maybe to as much as 800 lbs. While searching the Ford Parts site I found that there is a rear frame module for the towing package ( Part #: 5F146 ) - so I assume this also has some sort of rating concerning weight (anyone know what that may be?). So the question is - If I replace the tow bar is my warranty voided? And would 800 lbs of hitch weight be detrimental to the frame???
Thanks in advance for any information
