    First...With an exception I've never towed anything thus I know nothing about towing or trailers.
    Can someone here tell me if this is a oem hitch and or what type plus the capacity in lbs ??

    A few... Definitely more than 2
    That is the OEM hitch and there are a few other factors that go into your towing capacity but the possible range for a 2011 crewmax with the 5.7, is 9,000lbs up to 9,900lbs...

    The most important factors are your trim level and 2wd or 4wd. Your manual should have the exact number if you still have that.

    Yes thank goodness the p.o was considerate enough to leave all kinds of related maintenance papers in the truck.
    Honestly have no intention of towing anything any time soon , just curiosity.
    Considering it's a comfy living room on wheels 9k lbs is awesome imo.
    Also ever since I've had it I notice other Tundras more closely and I have yet to see one without said hitch for similar year models, must have been standard on all models ??
