How Much Does the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # GY65FR Weigh?
Question:
I have a 13.5k trailer and a 2-1/2 inch hitch receiver and uses a 2-5/16 ball. I am looking for a 5-inch rise on an adjustable ball mount, but I am not able to lift anything really heavy. How much does the Gen-Y Hitch GY65FR weigh?

Expert Reply:
The Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # GY65FR weighs a total of 49 pounds. If you are looking for something a bit lighter, I recommend the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount - 2.5" Hitch # BWTS20037B. This hitch weighs only 31 pounds, which is considerably lighter. The Tow & Stow also comes with the same 2-inch and 2-5/15 inch balls as the Gen-Y. It also provides you with a 5-inch rise and enough weight capacity for your 13.5k trailer (when using the 2-15/16 inch ball). It is important to note that the Tow & Stow has a 3,000 pound maximum tongue weight when the 2-15/16 ball is used.
