Video Transcript for Curt Stainless Steel 2 Inch Hitch Ball Review A-82

Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Curt Trailer Ball. When it comes to trailer balls you wanna just make sure that it's the right size for your coupler. So this one's gonna be for a 2" coupler. So you just wanna make sure and check that, and it is gonna have a 3,500 pound capacity. So we also wanna make sure it's gonna be hefty enough for whatever we plan on hauling. And of course we need to pair it up with a correct ball mount.

So when you're looking at ball mounts, one, we wanna make sure that the platform's gonna be anywhere from 3/8" to an 1 1/4" thick because the shank is about 2 1/8" long. So it comes with the nut and the lock washer. So you wanna make sure it can go all the way through. And then of course, with the hole on the inside of our ball mount, we wanna make sure it has a diameter of 3/4". Anything bigger than that, of course it won't fit and anything smaller, we're gonna have a lot of play there, and that's not something that you want with your towing setup.

So just make sure all that kinda lines up. It's made of a steel construction, so it should not rust away over time, but you never know. There's just a lot of friction that happens, almost every single trailer ball that I've seen has a little bit wear after a couple of years of use. So don't expect this not to rust away. If you really wanted to upgrade from this trailer ball, you can get one that's machined out of straight stainless steel, but we do have some other ones that are going to resist against rust and corrosion completely.

That's probably the only thing you could do to upgrade. When it comes to trailer balls there's not really a whole lot to 'em. You just wanna make sure you pair it up with the right ball mount. You wanna make sure it is gonna be rated the same as the ball mount. And of course, it's gonna be rated for whatever you are hauling.

That's pretty much all you really need to know to pick out the right system to haul whatever you're hauling. And that's pretty much it for our look at the Curt 2" Trailer Ball..

When installing the ball, the instructions call for a torque of 140 pounds, so you'll need a torque wrench. This is a good, solid product.

Still going strong. Great products and absolutely no complaints



by:

Etrailer is my go to store for trailer parts. The curts 2” hitch ball is very high quality machined stainless steel. If your a person that doesn’t like rusty hitch balls than this is a product you will definitely like.



by:

This 2" hitch ball is made of quality stainless steel and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I towed a RangeRunner Runaway camper 1200 miles from Summerfield, Florida to Rochester, New York and the hitch ball was great!

Thank you etrailer!!

Excellent quality!



by:

I have used this product allot since getting it a year ago. I store it in the trunk of my car next to the spare tire when not in use. It has no corrosion at all and works great with several trailers.



by:

Love the large product selection at etrailer. Bought a (stainless steel) 2" ball, and (5-1/2 inch rise) drawbar for my 1-1/4" hitch. That high rise drawbar is not commonly carried in stock. Both items were in stock at etrailer. Standard delivery was fast, and tracking number was provided. Both items work great on initial checkout. Quality of the products are good, and I don't expect any problems with them in the future.



by:

This solid made and arrived early. Haven't pulled load yet but it installed great and fits.



by:

Needed a 1 1/4” hitch for my new Mazda. Only place that had that size was etrailer. Also got a 2” ball and Clevis pin to attach hitch. Everything arrived in perfect shape . Now I can haul my RAZR to cabin. etrailer always come through!.



by:

Excellent ball hitch. Installed easily and took it for a successful twenty mile test run. Any other trailer needs and I will be back to this site for sure!



by:

All three items (hitch ball, extra long ball mount and hitch receiver lock came very quickly, packaged very well and are of high quality and are reasonably priced. The extra long ball mount has solved my problem of having to backup the car into the water. I have looked for it locally to no avail but have found it on etrailer.com.
In short I am very happy with the product and the service.



by:

Price was right, shipped and received with no issues and the product is doing what it was intended to do. What impresses me about etrailer is all the extra information provided on your web site in reference about the product with helpful insight.



by:

How could this product be anything less than stellar? It fits my class I hitch mount, and it allows me to tow my light duty trailer without me ever having to even think about it becoming a rusty eyesore on my car.



by:

The drawbar and hitch ball were exactly as described on the website and delivered very promptly. I value the wide selection of products offered by etrailer.com. Saves me lots of time when shopping for what I need.



by:

With the help of my salesperson Lisa, I was able to find the correct hitch for my set up and she had to help me size it up, and it worked out perfectly. After placing the order I was notified when it shipped, and then a delivery date, best of all, it was less then a week.
great job Lisa, and e trailer.



by:

THANKS FOR GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE - I KNEW CALLING ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON WASN'T THE BEST IDEA BUT YOU ALL WERE ABLE TO GET IT SHIPPED OUT BEFORE THE CLOSE OF THE WORK DAY WHICH WOULD HAVE PUT SHIPPING OVER UNTIL MONDAY - THANKS FOR THAT. I'VE INSTALLED THE HITCH BALL BUT HAVEN'T USED IT YET. GREAT LOOKING PRODUCT. A REAL PLEASURE WORKING WITH YOU.



by:

Excellent web site, providing all the details I needed for my 1.25" hitch. Could not find the information I needed on other web sites, so placed my order at eTrailer. Couldn't be happier.

  • What is the Height From Ground to the Top of Drawbar on 2017 VW Golf TSI Model?
    On your 2017 VW Golf TSI the installed height from the ground to the top of the drawbar or the inside of the receiver tube is 9-1/2 inches n the Curt # C11412 trailer hitch. I've also attached a video of this installation to further assist. For a ball mount on this hitch, I recommend the Curt # C45521 with hitch ball # A-82 or # A-80 along with hitch pin # F-4. Finally for trailer wiring I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118646....

  • 2007 Subaru Impreza Hitch Compatibility with Dirt Bike Motorcyle
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11497 is a confirmed fit for a 2007 Subaru Impreza. It is rated for 200 lbs tongue weight but won't allow for the 2 inch opening for your motorcycle carrier. Using an adapter would reduce your capacity by 50%, and would also need to include the carrier weight. With your dirt bike weighing around 190 pounds, we do not have a cargo carrier option that would allow you to stay within the weight capacity of the trailer hitch. The...

This is a Class I hitch with a 2,500 lb towing capacity and 250 lb tongue weight; it has a black powder coat finish to help protect it from corrosion and comes with a lifetime warranty.

    For your 2005 Mini Cooper convertible only a light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class I hitch is offered, the Curt model # C11126, which fits the non-S-Series convertible version. But if the trailer you want to tow has a 2-inch coupler, this just means that it requires a 2-inch hitch ball like # A-82 which will work in ball mount # C45521. This is the recommend ball mount for the Curt Class I hitch. You do not need any sort of adapter to use a 2-inch hitch ball on your Mini. In cases when a hitch...

If you'll be doing light duty towing with the hitch, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # 118646 unless you have a GTI or R model, in which case you'd use # 119250KIT.

  • Best Way of Carrying Motorcycle on 2015 Subaru Impreza
    The only hitches available for a 2015 Subaru Impreza are a Class I, which would lack the tongue weight capacity to handle the weight of your bike plus a hitch mounted carrier. Typically this happens when it's determined that the under body structure of the vehicle isn't capable of handling weight in excess of 200 lbs. Your best bet would be to install a hitch and use a small trailer. For the 5 door wagon with a single exhaust, I'd recommend the Curt # C11286 and the Tekonsha # 118573 wiring...

If you plan to use the hitch to carry a cargo carrier, bike rack, or some other non-trailer accessory you also need to use a support strap, part # 18050, in order to be compliant with Curt's warranty.

  • Can Curt Class I Trailer Hitch # C11453 Be Used for Towing
    The Curt Class I Trailer Hitch # C11453 that you referenced does feature a 1,000 pound towing weight capacity so the hitch itself is capable of towing a trailer as long as it doesn't exceed this limit. With that being said you will still want to check the towing limits of your Nissan Micra as stated in the owner's manual. Because you will always be limited by your weakest component, you will need to adhere to whichever limit is lower, the vehicle's or the hitch's. If you do find that...

As noted in the linked installation video at the 18-second mark, the top of the receiver opening will be approximately 10-3/4-inches above the ground once installed.
