Abstract: A trailer towing device including an axial tow bar that has a front end, a rear end and top portion with a plurality of apertures. A socket hitch is coupled to the front end of the tow bar, and has a tow ball gripping catch for securing the socket hitch to a tow ball of a vehicle bumper. An cross member is attached to the rear end of the tow bar. A traverse axle is in contact with the inner surface and within the channel of the cross member. The traverse axle has a pair of axle adaptors fixedly attached to the top thereof. The traverse axle supports the tires. A reinforcing plate is attached to the upper surface of the cross member, and has a junction box and a hitch ball head post. Lastly, a pair of gusset bars, with one end of each gusset bar fixedly attached to the tow bar, while another end of each gusset bar is fixedly attached to the cross member. The pair of gusset bars provide axial rigidity between the tow bar and the cross member, when the traverse axle is within the cross member.
