Still haven't towed anything with it yet but it seems very solid. I do think it will rattle some in the receiver because it is loose in my 2" receiver on my 2019 F150.

I have used this quite a few times over the last year. I have used it in several different heights and it worked great. This is a very strong and heavy product that should last me a life time and on many tow vehicles.



by:

This hitch has worked out great for me over the last year. It’s very heavy duty and easy to adjust. I’ve hauled a 9,000 lb boat, long-distance on numerous occasions without issue. I also haul a landscape trailer on a daily basis weighing over 5,000lbs and haven’t had a single issue. Great hitch that was significantly cheaper than others and is very high quality. I’ve recommended it to several people and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again. The only thing I would like to have now in a hitch is a tongue weight gauge, but it isn’t necessary.

It just so happens we offer a tongue weight scale as part # e99044...



by:

This is a great hitch. Highly recommend this hitch. This is my second curt hitch, first one was on my ford f450 but unfortunately that one wouldn’t fit on my new truck, do to shank size.



by:

Pictures attached. Curt makes such great quality products. I love this new hitch.

Great hitch, after one year I still recommend. Get one!



by:

I am very impressed with C45900 ball mount. Curt is an excellent manufacturer. The only thing I did not like are the snap rings on the pins. I have seen those get hooked unintentionally or be pulled to steal the ball mount. I replaced Curt's pins with Grade 8 bolts, drilled holes and secured with a padlock. It would be nice if someone made a locking hitch pin with enough span for the channel. I added the reflective tape for higher visibility. I live in Phoenix where they have a plant. Please run this idea by them and let me know what they think. The two locking hitch pins would only raise the price by $50. If you have a vendor who has longer pins please let me know. Using unsecured pins is asking for trouble. Thanks--Jerry



by:

I really like your products and the shipping of my hitch was very prompt



by:

My package came in opened and I’m not sure all the parts are even there. I can send a picture to show you what was in the package and how the package was when I received it. It was open on two ends.

Sorry to hear about this. Customer Service will contact you.



by:

Excellent product. Installed in minutes. I tow a 14 k lb dump trailer. Needed the additional rise on the hitch. The draw bar is adjustable so that I can tow my utility trailer as well. High quality like most products I have purchased from etrailer.com

Very good except the Rubber s have worn causing hitch to vibrate



by:

We need the ability for different vehicles to pull a trailer and this should work great but haven't had a chance to use yet.



by:

Excellent product that fit my need perfectly. I tow with 2 trucks, one needs a drop and the other needs it up a bit. I usually leave it on one truck but I also tow 3 different trailers with it and was sick of having to carry all sorts of hitches.
I've had no complaints at all with it, I'd definitely buy recommend it to anyone.

@Shane Good deal, glad you're happy with the # C45900 ball mount!

Thanx for a high quality hitch with low or no noise.I will be towing a 12000 lb 30Ft.Rinker.
The hitch is very easy to adjust.

Awesome Adjustable Ballmount..



by:

Great price. Worked perfectly. E-trailer always has what I am looking for with fast shipping. Great product and very well constructed.

Bryan

It works perfect. Adjustable so I can tow my boat, and dump trailer. Easy to use and still looks brand new.



by:

High quality build, high towing capacity, very flexible - will adjust to a wide variety of hitch heights. Reasonable price and fast delivery!



by:

Used it for the first time today. Appears to be very well made. Like the fact that it is much quieter pulling the boat after making the switch.



by:

Product was better than I thought. Welds looked great. Fit and finish were great. Shipping was fast and well pckaged



by:

I have had this ball mount on my truck for about a year now. Has held up well with no real issues. One pen did disappear earlier this year, but not sure if it somehow worked out on its own or if someone stole it. Replacement was easy to find. Easy to adjust, does not make any noticeable noise.



by:

I like the overall versatility of this hitch but the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because Curt is manufactured in the USA. The box I received says it was made in India! I hope this metal is strong and well made cause my horses lives depend on it.

Etrailer Expert

Thank you for your review. The Curt hitches are assembled in the USA but not the ball mounts. The only adjustable ball mounts that we carry that are made in the USA are the B&W adjustable ball mounts like part BWTS10040B.



by:

The hitch worked great I bought this hitch plus a Curt Lunette ring C48660 for my pull truck. Used the hitch setup for the first time last night and worked flawless, I would definitely recommend this setup to my friends the price was great and the hitch is well built.Thanks etrailer



by:

Great product at a great price and shipped very fast. Your warehouse to my door in GA in less than 48 hours FREE! Thanks. I always enjoy dealing with your company.



by:

Wroks great. I can adjust this hitch for all 6 of my trailers.



by:

This hitch is as KISS as an adjustable hitch could be. Built very well, with good thick gussets, a solid receiver shank, perfect welds and a good powder coat. The fact the trailer balls are built from one forged piece means no worry about a nut loosening and no weld to potentially break. I would go ahead and recommend you buy two replacement rubber isolators and just go ahead and put them in the other two holes in the hitch so no matter where the ball is it has some contact with an isolator without having to move the one it comes with. I highly recommend etrailer, they have great prices and fast shipping and they put out a lot of very helpful videos and pictures of the products they are selling.



by:

Just what I needed in a drop hitch. Very stout. Love the ability to change by 1 inch at a time.

Cody

6/8/2019

This has made life so much easier for switching around trailers and being able to load level everything. Should have bought one much sooner.



by:

perfect product - super heavy duty, very fast delivery



by:

I am completely satisfied with the adjustable hitch. It's heavy duty and easy to adjust.

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500 LD
    Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 41944 only fits the HD models of the 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500. For your LD the comparable hitch is # 41932. It does require that the truck have the factory bumper and brackets for installation. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation for you. For a ball mount and balls I recommend the Curt adjustable ball mount # C45900. It is rated for 14,000 pounds gross trailer weight and includes a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch ball. I also recommend locking...

  • How Much Can a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.7L V8 Tow
    In order to find out if your vehicle is equipped to pull a certain trailer you will need to find the towing capacity of your vehicle and make sure the weight of the trailer does not exceed this figure. Now, there are several different towing capacities for a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.7L V8 that can range from 4,690 lbs to 9,150 lbs. If you can provide me with your cab style, transmission type, axle ratio, and gross combined weight rating (GCWR) then I could give you an exact capacity....

  • Locking Pin Set for Curt C45900 Channel Style Height Adjustable Ball Mount
    Curt does indeed offer a lock set specifically designed for their channel style adjustable ball mounts like the # C45900 you'd earlier purchased. I'd recommend the # C23556 which includes a keyed alike hitch lock and a locking pin that would take the place of one of the height adjustment pins. The locking adjustment pin has a 4-1/4 inch span, so it will accommodate the width of the ball mount with no problem as you can see in the linked video.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver, Wiring, and Ball Mount for 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe
    The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75471 is a confirmed fit and an excellent choice for your 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe. It does not come with a ball mount or with wiring for trailer connection. For your trailer wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118415. This harness installs to your factory harness located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area. Then for an adjustable...

  • Is Step for Curt Adjustable Channel Ball # C4590 Usable with Curt Slim Adjustable Channel Mount
    I spoke to my contact at Curt and he said that if your slim adjustable mount was like the Curt Slim Adjustable 2-Ball Channel Mount - 2" Hitch # C46KR, it will not be a fit for the Step for Curt Adjustable Channel Ball Mounts - Anti-Skid Surface # C45909. You will need a channel mount like the Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount - 2" & 2-5/16" Balls - 14,000 lbs Item # C45900.

  • Will Curt Lock Set for Adjustable Channel-Style Mounts Fit Curt Adjustable Ball Mount Receiver
    I spoke with my contact at Curt and he confirmed the Curt Lock Set for Adjustable Channel-Style Mounts # C23556 is designed for use with Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900. This part includes two 5/8-inch diameter locking pins, each with 2 keys, which will allow you to retain the full capacity of the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount. I have included a link to a video review of this ballmount for you to check out.

  • Availability of an Adjustable Ball Mount with Sway Control Bracket
    I am not sure how much your trailer weighs but if it happens to be under 6,000 pounds you could use adjustable ball mount with anti-sway bracket, # 7390. It is currently the only adjustable ball mount we carry that also has a sway control bracket built in. If that ball mount will not work for you then you will need to go with a weight distribution system with sway control. In order to determine the best option for you I would need to know the total tongue weight of the trailer. This is...

  • Trailer Weight Capacity and Ball Mount for 2014 Jeep Wrangler
    Your 2014 Jeep Wrangler is not rated for towing a trailer that is as big as your hitch is rated for. Your hitch is rated for 7,500 lbs, but your vehicle is likely rated for 3,500 lbs or even less at 2,000 lbs depending on your engine, axle ratio, and transmission combination. The descriptions are listed in the owner's manual. Many hitches are independently tested and are rated for capacities that exceed the vehicle manufacturers capacities for the vehicle.

  • Can A Reese Adjustable Ball Mount Be Used in Both the Rise and Drop Position
    Yes, adjustable ball mounts like the Reese you have or # RP21141 can be used in either rise or drop position to get the correct ball height. This ball mount has a maximum rise of 6-1/4 inches and a maximum drop of 7-1/2 inches but is not rated high enough for an 11,000 pound trailer. Curt ball mount # C45900 has a max rise of 5 inches and max drop of 6 inches and is rated for 14,000 pounds.

  • Motorhome Receiver To Use A 2 Inch Hitch Ball With Adjustable Ball Mount.

If you need a greater drop, you can use Convert-A-Ball Dual-Cushioned, Adjustable Ball Mount - 7" Rise to 9-1/2" Drop - 5,000 lbs, # CAB-UM, with a 2 inch ball like # A-90. The Hi-Low adapters like # RM-048-6 are only to be used for flat towing. You will want to make sure...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch And Wiring For 2006 Toyota Tundra
    For your 2006 Toyota Tundra, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13180. This is a square tube design with a black powder coat finish over a protective base coat for superior rust resistance. This is a no drill installation. For your wiring, I recommend the 4 Pole Harness and Hardwire Kit - Includes Tester # C59496. This will give you a 4 way flat connection. Then you will need to get the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brakes # ETBC7....

  • Recommended Brake Controller And Wiring For 2007 Ford Ranger
    Brake controllers are not vehicle fit specific, so yes, they interchange. I confess to having a favorite brake controller and it is the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. This is a proportional brake controller that has an LCD screen. It is so easy to understand and see what you need in real time. I'm not a fan of all the codes as it is constantly confusing people, and this controller avoids that. It is customizable to your driving preferences and has 3 levels of boost. For your 2007...

  • Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount For A 2023 Mazda CX-9 With Draw Tite 76020 Hitch
    We do have a potential solution for you, but the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 is not going to work with this setup. The Draw Tite Hitch # 76020 is going to be recessed about 6" behind the bumper on the 2023 Mazda CX-9. This is measured from the center of the hitch pin hole, to the farthest edge of the bumper. The Curt ball mount has a vertical support welded to the back of the channel only 4-1/8" from the pin hole. This would contact the bumper before it could be fully...

    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13042 is a confirmed fit for your 1992 GMC 1500 4WD truck. There is no drilling needed for this hitch installation, but you will need to lower your spare tire for installation. If you don't already have trailer wiring, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118315 which is confirmed to fit your truck.

    According to the owner's manual for your 2002 Jeep Liberty, the maximum towing capacity is 2,000 lbs if you do not have the factory trailer tow package or 5,000 lbs if you do have the factory trailer tow package. If you do not know whether or not you have the factory trailer tow package you can call the dealer with your VIN and ask.

  • Will the BOLT Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock Fit a Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount
    The Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 requires a span of 3-1/4" for a lock. The BOLT Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" and 2-1/2" Hitches - Codes to Toyota Key # BL7023584 will not fit the Curt ballmount. I recommend the Curt Lock Set for Adjustable Channel-Style Mounts # C23556 instead. This lock is designed for the # C45900 and the use of these pins retains the full capacity of the ball mounts. I have attached a review video of the Curt lock set for your reference.

    The item you selected, Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 includes the mount and the hitch balls. Included is a 2 inch and 2-5/16 inch hitch ball unit. The Curt # C45900 will fit 2 inch receivers and can provide up to a 5-1/4 inch rise or 6 inch drop. Also included is a pin and clip. For added security, I would recommend using the Rapid Hitch Lock and Adjustment Pin Lock Set, # AM3492. However the capacity of the locks is 10,000 lbs, so you would be limited to 10,000 lbs...
