But hitches are rated at the actual weight of the trailer or object being towed. If you use it to tow another X at 4000 pounds your exceeding the capacity of the hitch. If your using it for recovery, yeah the the X is on wheels, but they probably aren't rolling freely or they are stuck in mud and therefore there is more resistance.
