Can Rack'em Trailer Dolly be used with Coupler that Has 2-5/16 inch Hitch Ball Size
Question:
CAN YOU GET A 2 5/16 BALL FOR THE RA20 DOLLY?
asked by: PAUL L
Expert Reply:
You can't get a larger ball for the Rack'Em Trailer Dolly part # RA20, but the good news is that you don't need one to use it with a trailer trailer that has a coupler designed for a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball. The reason for this is that the smaller ball size of this will fit into a larger ball coupler and work just fine. There's no real reason to match the ball size exact so that the latch holds tightly to the ball since if for some reason the trailer was to try and lift the nose up it would just take the dolly with it. Or long story short...if you were in a situation where you would need the coupler to latch onto the ball you would have much bigger problems since it would be you and the dolly vs. whatever was going on with the trailer.
