Corrosion-resistant ball mount is 9-3/8" long and fits 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" trailer hitch receivers.

by:

I needed to tow a trailer with a 2" ball. My original ball mount has a 1 7/8" ball installed. I had previously tried to change a ball on a hitch and destroyed the nut and damaged the underside of the ball mount. The lock washer had done a great job in keeping the nut from coming off. I dreaded trying to remove my 1 7/8" ball to install a new one that I would only use once.
I decided to buy a new ball mount and mount the new 2" ball.
This ball mount is so inexpensive that I realized I could have both ball sizes permanently mounted for use in either ball size.

Still glad I purchased a new mount instead of trying to change ball sizes.



by:

I wasn't sure what type of ball mount I needed for my new Mazda CX-9, so I had to call a representative. The first time I called, the very knowledgeable gentlemen told me exactly how to measure my SUV to figure out the drop I needed. I called back the next day and talked to a lady who helped me figure out exactly what I needed.

This is my second purchase from etrailer. The first was a hitch for my old Honda Odyssey, which was also a great experience. The employees are so helpful, the video tutorials on the web site are fantastic and the prices are great. etrailer.com is the first place I go to look for trailer and towing supplies!

The ball mount and ball that I bought last year has worked out well, and is still in great shape. But Ive come to expect that etrailer.com will sell me a quality product. Thats just what they do!



by:

I needed a ball mount that would keep the tongue lock away from the spare tire on my Jeep.
This mount gave me just enough clearance so the tire cover clears.
Handled a small trailer with 1500 # of rock / concrete easily.

Great addition for the trailer.

Great service, fast shipping.

Thanks

Rick

6/29/2015

Yes, I still like it



by:

Holds the ball very well and fits into the receiver socket nicely.



by:

Customer service is great, returns are trouble free and fast. The hitch is very solid, and came with all hardware needed to install. I had to return a defective wire harness. Replacement worked fine. I put this on my 04 Chrysler 300M, a car that really wasn't built for towing, and the hitch works great !!

I got an excellent product at a fair price, from a company that stands behind what they sell.

I'm glad I made my purchase with etrailer.com.



by:

Online ordering was a breeze and the item shipped within a day or two of ordering. etrailers let me know via e-mail when the order was filled and provided a tracking number.

The drawbar was well packaged and quality is perfect....good welds, solid paint to prevent corrosion and the holes for the pin and ball are perfectly sized...no slop and not too tight. I would purchase again from etrailer



by:

A good product! This is the second hitch I have installed using etrailer and it went as well as the first. Not being a super skilled Tech it took longer than expected, but for me it was a project that needed to be done, and I enjoy a good project when it comes together, no matter if it took a little longer due to an average person's tool inventory and simple jack stands and floor jacks. The instruction videos are the best I have seen as of yet. If you enjoy working with your hands, I recommend etrailer products!



by:

Excellent quality and fits the car (distance from fender to trailer)
I would recommend.

It works perfect for the Volvo S60 when towing a small camper tenttrailer.



by:

This, and the trailer hitch I purchased earlier are good, solid products. There was a bit of very hard paint preventing the hitch key from going through the hole, mut a half minute with a round file cleaned it out. The paint is TOUGH so I guess that will be good for long wear.

The tongue had blown through the end of the shipping package, but there was no damage.

The whole experience with etrailers.com was excellent, especially with the video instructions.



by:

It was easy to use the website to find the correct hitch parts for my car and to order. They arrived when expected and in an intact box, well packaged. Was able to easily install in under an hour.

Everything is still working great. Thanks.



by:

I really like this ball mount for my Ford Fusion.
This is a solid piece of steel.
I did turn it upside down to get the trailer tongue to look ok.

I bought this with the Curt C12091 hitch for the Ford Fusion.



by:

I have been impressed with you guys so far. Your prices are good and to have what I need. I went on {a different website}, but I like to deal with people, and talk to them when its needed, {that other website} is a selling machine, they are good with returns, but they really don't know their products, and rely on reviews to give you answers. Anyway, I will be calling you guys very soon to buy a wiring harness, and I,d like to pick one of your technicians brain for the right harness. Thanks Again for being out there



by:

Works great

I'm using this to haul small trailer with Chevrolet Equinox. Hitch on this SUV is rated at 3500 lbs. max. Product is well made.



by:

Carol C
Thank you so much for your response
and follow up to my recent order. I didn't expect to receive my Curt Hitch and drawbar order as quickly is as did. Thank you again for your attention and promptness in processing my order. It's been a pleasure to deal with your company and I would urge people to do business with you.



by:

The hitch was exactly what I needed and works great for the receiver on the car. Shipment was quick and the quality and price were great.



by:

Though etrailer recommended the 7 1/4" length for the Focus ST models, measuring the length required is more than 7 1/4. The 9 3/8" length is a perfect match for the bumper profile.



by:

It had a few burs that had to be smoothed off to fit in the receiver and for the pin to go through but other than that it should be good to go for the kayak trailer.



by:

Product and services were excellent. The eTrailer website is clear and concise, and offer DIY videos for all products. Major plus !!

etrailer service technicians are very professional and follow up on calls and deliveries. Prices are very competitive, with shipping costs included.

I've recommended to friends who were also very satisfied.

Thanks



by:

The Class II Drawbar is working great with our 2016 Chev. Equinox. Thanks.



by:

Very well made ball mount. Nice, clean welds. Good looking powder coating. Made in the USA and reasonably priced. What is there not to like about Curt products?



by:

The hitch package I installed on my 05 Camry is holding up great and pulls my bass tracker like a charm!



by:

A nice little receiver adapter that is strong. Good quality, nothing to worry about here.



by:

Solid product but needs more rise to comfortably tow a U-Haul trailer with a 2015 GTI.



by:

Received everything I ordered in just 2 days. Second time I used etrailer.com and would have no problem recommending them or using them again.

    There is currently one hitch that we offer for your 2015 VW GTI Autobahn. It's the Curt hitch # C11412. It is custom fit for your GTI but it will be visible when not in use because the receiver tube is flush with the crossbar. This is a Class-I hitch and the maximum gross trailer weight is 2,000 pounds and tongue weight maximum is 200 pounds.

  • Hitch and Wiring Harness Recommendation For 2015 Mazda 6
    We do have a light-duty Class I hitch for your 2015 Mazda 6 Sedan. I recommend Curt hitch # C11356 because it is the lowest-cost option and requires no drilling for installation. It bolts on using included hardware as shown in the linked video. The ball mount you can use is part # C45016 and for a hitch ball use either 2-inch ball # A-82 or 1-7/8-inch ball # A-80. For wiring I recommend Tow Ready kit # 118587 which will give you a 4-pole flat trailer connector. The linked article will...

  • Fit of Curt Class II C12091 Trailer Hitch on 2018 Ford Fusion Titanium
    According to Curt Manufacturing, their # C12091 fits all models of the Ford Fusion, with the exception of the Sport model. If you'll be towing with your trailer, you'll need a trailer wiring harness like part # 118574, a ball mount like # C45016 and a trailer ball. For a trailer ball, use # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch or # A-82 for a 2 inch ball. I've linked to an install video for the hitch and the trailer wiring harness.

    Yes, the opening of the Curt trailer hitch receiver # C11000, which you have referenced, will measure 1-1/4" x 1-1/4". Please consult the vehicle owner's manual first if you plan on doing any towing. The correct ball mount for use with this hitch and vehicle is # C45016. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. If you are not going to tow and instead use the hitch for something like a bike rack or cargo carrier, Curt recommends the use of stabilization strap...

    According to owner's manual for your 2008 Dodge Caliber the gross trailer (GTW) and tongue weight (TW) rating of your vehicle with the 2.0L I4 engine is 1,000 lbs and 150 lbs respectively. Therefore, I cannot recommend you use this vehicle to haul your motorcycle (206 lbs) and carrier (36 lbs) as this would exceed the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle. The only way I can offer you to haul your motorcycle is on the back of a trailer. In order to use this trailer you would need a trailer...

  • Which Ball Mount Should be Used with Curt Hitch that Fits 2011 Dodge Caliber
    Curt actually recommends a longer ball mount # C45016 with the hitch part # C11006 as it is a bit longer like you mentioned and has been confirmed to be the right rise/drop and the correct length. For hitch balls the part # A-82 would be what you'd need for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. For trailer wiring then we have the part # HM11142175 which is an easy fit.

If you will be using this hitch receiver for a bike rack or cargo carrier, you will need to use the stabilization strap # 18050.

    The only Curt hitch available for your 2011 Volkswagen GTI is the part # C11000 which is a Class I hitch. Class II hitches are used on vehicles that have higher capacities such as larger sedans and vans. The # C11000 can still be used to tow a jet ski trailer as it has a 200 lb tongue weight and 2,000 lb trailer weight capacity. As long as your jet ski trailer weighs less than that and the towing capacity listed in your vehicle owners manual you would be good to go. The recommended ball...

    The draw bar included with the hitch is part # C45016, which has a 2-5/8 inch rise, or 3-1/4 inch drop. Ideally, you want to tow the trailer so that it is as level as possible, but being within an inch and a half either way is close enough for government work. Keep in mind that hitch is designed to work best with a draw bar with the same drop as the C45016, and using a draw bar with a different rise or drop is not recommended.
