The Extra Long Ball Mount proved useful immediately upon receipt. Delivery was prompt, and the updates from etrailer.com helped plan transport of several bicycles, simultaneously with a camper trailer. The extended length facilitated use with a Swagman bicycle rack, also purchased via etrailer.com. The product arrived in excellent condition, with correct capacity rating, and works perfectly, and in conjunction with the bicycle rack. I recommend purchases from etrailer.

Everything is still performing well and in good condition. Thanks for checking.



by:

This slightly longer than average bar was perfect for my application. The drop length was perfect also for the application. As usual, eTrailer's site and retail experience was first rate. Lots of info and specs (and videos) available makes it easier to get that piece of mind knowing that what you needed was what you ordered.

I no longer have the trailer or need for this draw bar. Regardless, it worked perfectly and it is stored safely away for future needs as they arise.



by:

Product is exactly as described on the etrailer.com website and measurements
and dimensions fit perfect. Easy phone order process and prompt delivery,
standard shipping arrived 3 business days after the order was placed. The
extra long version of the ball mount makes it perfect for me to put on the
bike rack while towing my horses.

I ordered the Curt Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 4" Rise, 6" Drop - 14-1/4" Long - 6,000 lbs, and the 1-7/8" Hitch Ball - 1" Diameter x 2-1/8" Long Shank - Chrome - 2,000 lbs.

Purpose was to raise the back of our 2005 Mercury hitch to better pull our home built kayak trailer. I was looking to get a better leveling position of the trailer. This 4" rise Hitch was a long shank did the trick ! VERY IMPRESSED with sales that helped me purchase the correct product. I purchase all my tires and trailer supplies from etrailer.com .......best quality, price, and support. Thank you.

by:

Needed to extend my hitch a little farther from the vehicle and this one seems to fit the bill. I tow an AT Chaser offroad trailer behind an FJ Cruiser and need a hitch bar that can take some abuse, and I'm hoping this one stands up.



by:

Fit and finish is above what I expected. If you need a class 1 or a class 2 I recommend spending a little more money and going with a class 3. You can get any size ball you need and the design is much cleaner especially if you need a high rise or low rise unit . the heavier gauge steel unit needs less intrusive back braces giving more clearance and a cleaner look.



by:

Perfect drop for my 2022 Ford Bronco.



by:

This hitch was just what I needed to pull a trailer with my Polaris Ranger 570efi



by:

How can a company put a twenty pound steel trailer hitch in a single wall cardboard box and expect it to get delivered without damage? This has happened with multiple orders that had heavy merchandise that broke the box and was damaged or completely missing from the broken box upon delivery. etrailer has great service and products but their shipping is absolutely awful.



by:

I bought this because I needed the rise, not the drop. But, I only bought it after watching the instructional video on etrailer.com on how to measure for how much of a rise you need. When I pulled this out of the box, I thought "this is way too high" and that the video missed the mark. But imagine my surprise when I put it on my van after putting the ball on -- when I put the trailer on the ball, the trailer was dead level! Kudos to etrailer for putting up that video!

I've ordered from etrailer a few times and the service is just insanely good! Incredibly fast shipping, prices better than any other place online or in my area, expert advice when you need it and great information.

This has worn well, no chips in the paint unlike other ball mounts I have.



by:

I was looking for a ball mount with a long shank so that I could mount a set of mud flaps on it. The problem I had, is that I already had one of the longest ball mounts I could find, but that did not give me the clearance I needed to mount the mud flaps. etrailer is the only place I could find this extra long ball mount. This solved my problem without having to resort to costly customization. The Customer Service is excellent as well, both before and after the sale.

I am very satisfied with my purchases. They continue to perform as needed.



by:

Zero complaints. Ordered and received the ball mount without any problems. The mount does what I bought it to do. I will use etrailer again if I need one of their products and would strongly recommend them.



by:

Ordered the same Drawbar with the 4 inch drop last year and decided I needed a 6 inch drop. This extra long drawbar is great and allows me to back up with the tailgate down for a much better view.

Gary M.

A year later and still working great!



by:

Fits me receiver nicely



by:

This is almost exactly what I needed. I needed an extension to give me more clearance between the hitch ball and my Town & Country tailgate. The added length gives me just barely enough clearance as long as my vehicle and camper are on level ground. Since I couldn't afford to lose the capacity by adding an extension, I had no real option other than to buy this longer hitch.
Since it's already longer than most standard hitches, there's no reason that it couldn't be 1" or 2" inches longer. There would be little or no capacity loss by doing that.
Other than the above, it's excellent quality, doesn't rattle in the hitch receiver and does what it's supposed to do. I like etrailer, their quality, service and support. Every time I have a question, someone answers the phone and knows their products well. I could have bought this anywhere but not everyplace has this type of service.
Thanks.



by:

I bought this one because it is longer, and I have mud flaps that attach onto the hitch. It works very well for that.

Great - good product



by:

I tried this receiver in conjunction with a trailer I am volunteering to move once a month. This ended up being a just a little too much of a drop. I can't knock the product for that. I did work well otherwise.

I liked the elongated longer receiver bar extra distance between the receiver locking pin and the drop bar to give greater clearance when towing.



by:

I have a 1978 Chevy K10 4x4 with a 4" lift and it has a hidden receiver hitch behind the License Plate. I thought I was going to have to have a ball mount made as I needed an extra long 8" shank to clear the rear bumper and 7500lb GVW rated. etrailer.com had just what I needed and George J. shipped it the next day (Saturday) and upgraded my shipping from 5-7 days to 3-5 days delivery with no extra charge! He also followed up to make sure I received it! I received it in 4 days and I am very impressed with the quality and thickness of the materials used to make it. It is heavy duty and pulls my fully loaded tandem axle flatbed with no problem. I highly recommend their products to anyone! Thanks George!!



by:

Nice ball mount for my application. I like how it is longer to give more clearance between the trailer and my HIghlander. Convenient for tighter turns. Good quality at an affordable price.



by:

Just what I needed 4 in rise. Well ma de.



by:

This long-shaft ball mount enabled me to fully insert and pin the shaft and get the rise I needed for towing level a Yakima Trailer by a 2015 Honda Odyssey. The typical, shorter shaft was not long enough for complete insertion and pinning of the shaft because the welded on arm-support piece hit the bumper.



by:

Love it. Perfect fit for front mount hitch application on 2013 Tundra. Matches back hitch height.



by:

I needed a hitch with a sizeable drop and an extra long shaft, so I knew that etrailer would be my best option. When I ordered my new hitch on a Saturday, the system said that it would be processed and shipped within 48 hours. Then I got a an email from Scott at etrailer who said he took care of the shipping on Saturday! It arrived on Wednesday exactly as ordered. It is a substantial, well constructed hitch for a very reasonable price. I'm a repeat etrailer customer, and will order again.



by:

Item is exactly as described- well built and nicely finished. What more is there to say about the ball mount? It fits and works exactly as it should. Price was good too.

Shipped fast, too. Very pleased with transaction.

I got the extended bar to clear a spare tire. With the extended bar, just make sure your trailer safety chains and plug are long enough to reach.

  • How Much Rise is Needed when Using Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch for 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan
    Are you trying to find out if the ball mount you get needs to have a 2 or 4 inch rise when using the Draw-Tite hitch # 75579 on your 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan? If that's the case and you already have the hitch and trailer you just need to take a couple measurements and find the difference between them. With both the van and the trailer parked on level ground measure from the top of the hitch's receiver opening to the ground and from the bottom of the trailer's coupler to the ground. The...

  • Fit and Installation of Curt C13395 Class III Trailer Hitch on 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude
    It sure will! On a scale of 1 to 10, we rated the install as a 5 which isn't too bad. The exhaust needs to be temporarily removed at the rear of the vehicle, but it's not terribly difficult if you follow the instructions and install video I've linked for you. The video will walk you right through the process. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C56406 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

  • How Difficult is the Curt C13154 Class III Hitch Installation on 2011 Acura RDX
    The Curt # C13154 Class III hitch install on a 2011 Acura RDX is pretty straightforward. One a difficulty scale of 1-10 with 1 being very simple and 10 being very difficult, we rated this install as a 4. We estimate a trained technician would take about 40 minutes to complete the install, or roughly double that for the typical do-it-yourselfer. The only tools you'll need is a metric socket set and a torque wrench. If you'll be using the hitch for towing purposes, you'll also need a trailer...

  • Recommended Parts Needed For Trailer Towing With a 2007 Toyota Sienna XLE
    I'm going to start with the receiver before getting to the ball mount you are looking at. I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98837 on your 2007 Toyota Sienna. Some important measurements to consider is the receiver height and hitch pin length to the bumper. When we installed this receiver on a similar 2006 Sienna the receiver height measured 10" from the ground and 6" from the hitch pin center hole to the rear edge of the bumper. The Curt Ball Mount # C45070 will...

    The presence of the rear bumper would interfere with a hitch passing through it, all the hitches we offer are designed so that the receiver tube sits below the rear bumper. I'm not aware of any hitch that would mount through the bumper, as it would require extensive fabrication work on the vehicle which would likely compromise the rear safety of the vehicle in a collision.

If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'll also need a trailer wiring harness like # C89KR, a ball mount like # D-28 and a trailer ball like # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball.

  • Choosing the Correct Ball Mount with 5.5 Inches Drop Between Hitch and Coupler
    We don't have a 5 inch drop ballmount for a 2 inch receiver (only 2-1/2 inch receivers), but a 6 inch ballmount, like # D-28, which you reference, will work just fine. The hitch ball can be an inch or so above the coupler height, since when they are joined there will be sag in the tow vehicle. Also if you are towing a light trailer, you will be better off going with the 6 inch ballmount. I have included a FAQ article on choosing the correct ball mount for you to check out.
