I recommend using the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-624 as Fastway does not offer a pintle hook for any of their adjustable ball mounts including the Flash Solid Steel HD Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # FA49-00-5925 that you are looking at.

The Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-624 has the same 2-1/2" shank as the Flash and includes both the 2" and 2-5/16" hitch balls that can be flipped for your trailer needs. The Gen-Y comes with a Pintle Lock # 325-GH-062 that will allow for you to tow your pintle trailer without having to change hitches.

There is also the Gen-Y Torsion 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-1325 that will help to limit the shock from your trailer that is transferred to your truck. This will have the same dual ball mount with pintle lock that the basic Gen-Y hitch comes with. This hitch will work in both the drop and rise position as well.

We see a lot of coupler heights around the 14 to 16 inch height for smaller trailers. So for a trailer that has 25 inches from the top of the hitch opening to the ground a 9 inch drop is going to be about right. So for a Gen Y adjustable ball mount…

The B&W Silencer Pad #BWTS35020 is intended to be placed on the shank of one of their Tow & Stow Multi-Ball Mounts like #BWTS10048B so that it acts like a gasket between the collar on the end of the hitch's receiver tube and the…

Answer 6

The Gen-Y Torsion adjustable ball mounts for 2-1/2 inch hitches are incredibly solid ball mount options. For a 6 inch lift on your truck you'd need one that can do a healthy amount of drop. But it really depends on how tall your trailer is going…

Actually the Gen-Y Torsion 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers #325-GH-1325 that you referenced weighs 124 lbs. This ball mount weighs so much because it has a very high weight capacity at 21,000 lbs, is adjustable and is cushioned. To pull all of that…

I did some checking and the hub/drum we offer that will work for you is the part #8-430-5UC3. This uses the same bearings as the 8-415 and will be an exact fit aside from the fact this is a non-ABS setup and the 8-415 came in an ABS setup and non-ABS…

What you're going to need is two of the transfer switches in that case. I have attached a diagram from Furrion that shows you how you're going to need to hook the two transfer switches #F30ATS up: -one to the other, then one branching off to…
