Replacement 2-5/16 Inch Hitch Ball for Blue Ox Track Pro Weight Distribution System
Question:
I need a bigger ball that what comes with the BLU36FR. The camper requires a 2 5/16. Which one do I use for this weight distribution unit? Ill be ?towing a 21ft KZ sportsmen classic 181BH with a 2017 Santa Fe 6 Cyl. 370Lb tongue weight dry 3,020 UVW..I think I chose the correct system. I would appreciate you input. Thank you

The Blue Ox Track Pro # BLU36FR requires a hitch ball with a 1-1/4" diameter shank, so you can use something like the Draw-Tite # 19286, which is a 2-5/16" hitch ball with a 1-1/4" shank. The Track Pro # BLU36FR is designed for trailers with tongue weights between 200-lbs and 600-lbs and you want your tongue weight to fall somewhere in the middle of that range. I'm guessing once you load everything up you'll have a tongue weight of around 450-lbs so the Track Pro # BLU36FR will work well for your KZ Sportsmen Classic 181BH.
You've chosen the correct system and using the 2-5/16" ball mentioned above will get you out on the road!
