Class III hitches are rated for a max towing weight of 5000# (Less than your tractor alone weighs) these are great for small boat trailers but not this. The bare minimum is a class IV or better yet a Class V.
Soundguy, this is not just a whim, but the actual ratings by the manufacturers. If you pull that 7000 trailer with a class 3 and are involved in an accident, your insurance carrier could refuse to pay based on your negligence.
