Hello Everyone,
Below is the response from this products manufacturer to my email. It reiterates that there is NO class rating for this product. I honestly hopes this puts to rest any questions or concerns anyone has about this great product. I believe that when we find a good product or service, we should pass it along!

Hello Bill,
You are correct. Our hitch tighteners do not have a rating.
"Hitch Style" refers only to what the hitch looks like. "Hitch Rating"
refers to the maximum tongue weight and gross trailer weight a
particular vehicle can tow.
Many persons confuse the terms or use them incorrectly.
For example: A 2" hitch with the reinforcing strap or casting welded on
the end is commonly referred to as a Class lll hitch just because it
looks like a Class lll, 3" across, 2" opening. But, in reality the
manufacturers "Hitch Rating" could be from less than I on a Prius to lV
or V on vehicles such as your trucks.
Good luck to you Bill. We hope this helps clear things up.
