Is There A 2-5/16 Bulldog Coupler That Slides Over Hitch Ball

Question

Question:

I am trying to find a 2 5/16 bolt on flat I want the kind that splits and something only slides over and locks the hitch to the ball I have a 1990 and a 1991 dodge pick ups that I need for. I want to have at least a 14000 lb and or up to 20000 lbs. If you have them let me know or if you know who else sells something similiar. Thanks for your help

We do have a variety of 2-5/16 inch trailer couplers available. For a coupler that would slide over or onto your hitch ball, we have the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler, part # BD028499.

The Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler is available for different types of trailers. For a square channel tongue, we have the Bulldog Collar-Lok Coupler, part # BD028444. And for a round tongue, you would need # BD028442.

However all the Bulldog Collar-Lok Couplers have a weight capacity of 12,500 lbs. For a higher capacity coupler in the range of 14,000 to 20,000 lbs, you would need a traditional style 2-5/16 inch coupler like the Bulldog Heavy-Duty Cast Head Coupler # BD44150WQ317, which has a 15,000 lb capacity.

I have linked an FAQ on trailer couplers.
