Suburban Trailer / Tow / Reciever Hitches

Let's talk tow hitches...
I have an 83 Sub with the 40 gallon tank in back. C20 w/454.
The factory Hitch says up to 4000 or 9500 w/WD

I'm looking to tow 5000-7000 with different trailers with out a WD setup.

Doesn't the factory rating seem a bit low compared to aftermarket ones that look similar?
Has any one here towed about 7000 with a stock hitch and no WD?

Has anyone used the "drill install" class 4 hitches before? It looks like you just have to drill one extra hole on each side to mount it all up.

Let's hear your experiences!

Here is regular class III, with 5000 tongue like most of them do.

Here are some Class IV, with 10,000 or 12,000 on the tongue
