I have used B&W hitches for many years and I've been very happy with the quality of their products. etrailer makes it easy to shop for these hitches since the B&W site is terrible. I was able to find the correct size and all dimensions were listed clearly. Thanks again!

heavy solid fits thanks

It is refreshing to still see American companies selling “Made in USA” quality these days.



by:

Great product would purchase again.



by:

Really heavy duty solid steel 2 inch square, really thick steel tongue and and tight fitting hole for the ball bolt so little chance of ball rattle or slipping. Nice smooth welding and finish.



by:

Ball mount is awesome and super high quality and heavy duty over and above what I will need to tow my 7000 pound car trailer but I like it that way! Great job to everyone involved. My hat is off to the fabricators, made in USA Mount arrived without a nick, perfect weld marks and flawless show quality paint job. I may not even use it, it is that nice. Maybe put it in a display case and start a collection. Fast shipping, 2 days



by:

Product is extremely heavy duty. much more than I will need, but I appreciate quality made is USA products. Etrailer packaging not so great. Box was torn by weight of this item, which caused a chip in the finish of the item.



by:

Solid shaft, weighty, but expecting a long life from it. I'll have to hunt around for someone who has the right tool for getting [torque specs] on the ball, but shouldn't be a big problem. Package tracking was excellent and on time.

Made from solid bar stock. B&W Made in the USA can not go wrong. Thank you Stacy for helping me order this product.

  • Class IV ball Mount and Ball Recommendations for a 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
    We have numerous ball mount styles and capacities that fit in a 2 inch trailer hitch, see link. For a Class IV with 16,000 pound capacity, the most popular options is # BWBMHD30010 if you are looking for a standard fix ball mount. For a ball you can use # A-90 for a 2 inch or # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch. If you are looking for a pintle hook combo, you could use # TR63041.

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch, # C15323 Fit a 2011 Chevy Silverado V-6, 2-Wheel Drive
    The Curt Trailer Hitch, # C15323, is designed to fit a 2011 Chevy Silverado 1500 series, so it should fit your truck. I have included a link to the installation details. The recommended ball mount for this hitch is # 40331 or # BWBMHD30010, and you can use ball # A-90 (2 inch diameter) or # 19286 (2-5/16 inch diameter). For trailer wiring, you can use Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket w/ Mounting Bracket - Vehicle End, # HM40975. I have included a video below showing a typical...

  • Ball Mount and Weight Distribution Recommendation for 8500 lb Travel Trailer
    The hollow shank ball mounts typically carry a lower weight rating than what you are looking for. You do not mention what kind of rise/drop you are needing, but for a 12,000 pound rating I would recommend a forged ball mount. Part # BWBMHD30010 offers a 1 inch rise or 2 inch drop, part # 40331 has a 3 inch rise or 4 inch drop, and part # 40332 features a 5 inch rise or a 6 inch drop. Anytime the loaded trailer weighs 50 percent or more than the weight of the vehicle, weight distribution...

  • Compatibility of Curt Class IV with Spare Tire of 2013 Ram 1500 ST
    The rearmost frame cross member or bumper beam of your Ram is essentially the OEM hitch minus the receiver opening. The OEM hitch can be completed so to speak using the Curt # 13333 which would provide a capacity of 6,000 lb gross towing/ 600 lb tongue weight. In order to achieve a higher tongue weight capacity (10,000 GTW/1,00TW), you would need to use the Curt Class IV # 14374 that uses the frame members for its two forward-most attachment points and the bumper beam for its rear attachment...

  • How Much Does the Steel Ball Mount # BWBMHD30010 Weigh
    The B&W Steel Ball Mount # BWBMHD30010 that you referenced weighs 13 lbs. I attached a review video for this ball mount for you to check out. For a 2-5/16 inch ball you would want a part # 19286, for a 2 inch ball part # A-90, for a pin and clip # PC3.

  • 50 mm Hitch Ball Recommendation for a 2 inch Trailer Hitch
    The only 50 mm hitch ball we offer is the part # 63912 with a 3/4 inch diameter shank that would only fit 1-1/4 inch ball mounts, but a 2 inch hitch ball translates to 50.8 mm. Which is very close. Since you have a 2 inch hitch your best option would be a 2 inch hitch ball like the part # A-90 and a ball mount like the # BWBMHD30010 for if you need a 1 inch rise or 2 inch drop. If you need a different rise/drop you would want to check out the help article I attached on how to pick out...

  • Fit of B & W Heavy Duty Class V Hitch Part # BWHDRH25124 on 1998 GMC C/K Series Truck
    The B & W Heavy Duty Trailer Hitch Receiver you referred to, part # BWHDRH25124 is indeed a fit for your 1998 GMC 2500 C/K series pickup. It is compatible with the factory step bumper. I have confirmed this for you with the nice folks at B & W. If you don't have a 4-pole trailer wiring harness, you can add one using part # 118315. You might also need a ball mount like part # BWBMHD30010 and a trailer ball. Use # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch ball, # 63845 for a 2 inch or # 63847 for a 2-5/16...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 1970 Ford F-100 Styleside with Standard Bumper
    Modification and/or relocation of the spare tire mounting bracket is going to be a possibility for any of the trailer hitches for your 1970 Ford F-100 styleside with standard bumper. The spare would have to be positioned further forward on the vehicle if it has to be moved at all. The only way to know for sure is to begin the installation process. There are no specific instructions if the spare does have to move. The most popular hitch option for your truck is # BWHDRH25122. I have included...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1994 Ford F-250
    When measuring the frame width on a vehicle, you will need to measure from the outside of one frame rail to the outside of the other frame rail. It sound like you have the 37-1/4 inch frame on your 1994 Ford F-250. Usually, you see the more narrow frame on cab and chassis models. The CURT Trailer Hitch, # C15300, does not fit vehicles with a 34 inch frame but will fit the 37-1/4 inch frame. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.

  • Availability of 2 Inch Ball Mount With a Rise Between 3/4 Inch and 1-1/4 Inch
    The least amount of rise for a 2 inch ball mount would be 3/4 inch, like the Convert-A-Ball Ball Mount, part # AMSC2. This is one of the most popular ball mounts. The next size up would be a 1 inch rise, like the B&W Ball Mount, part # BWBMHD30010. I am including links to product pages that will list the ball mounts with a 3/4 inch rise and with a 1 inch rise. You will want to make sure the gross towing weight capacity and the tongue weight capacity of the ball mount you choose should...

  • Will the B and W Hitch part # BWHDRH25132 Fit a 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 6 foot Bed
    Yes, the B and W Heavy Duty trailer hitch part # BWHDRH25132 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 6 foot bed that has either a standard or step bumper. For a heavy duty hitch with as much capacity as this hitch has you really aren't going to find a better deal. For a ball mount you would want the part # BWBMHD30010 and then for a 2-5/16 inch ball part # BWHB94004.

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 1996 Ford F-150 to Tow Limos on a Trailer
    For a 1996 Ford F-150 with a standard or step bumper the most popular hitch option is # C15300. It is considered a Class V hitch but has the more common 2 inch receiver. It is rated for 2,400 pounds of tongue weight and 16,000 pounds gross trailer weight (17,000 when used with weight distribution). This likely exceeds the capacity of the truck but check the owners manual for the trucks capacity and, if lower, go by the lower rating. Since you will be doing some towing I recommend etrailer...

I have included a link to the installation details below as well as a video showing installation on a similar vehicle. If you plan on doing some towing, the recommended ball mount is # BWBMHD30010 and hitch ball # A-90 (2 inch diameter) or # 19286 (2-5/16 inch diameter).

    The Curt trailer hitch # C14082 is designed to attach to the bottom of a 34 inch wide frame on a cab and chassis model 1978 Chevy C/K series pickup. If the spare tire fits between the frame rails then it will not be a problem, otherwise it would need to be relocated or the mount modified. If you do not have a cab and chassis model truck this hitch will not fit. I have linked the instructions for you to view.

  • Is the Curt Class III Ball Mount with 2-5/16" Ball - 2" Drop - 7,500 lbs Made in USA
    The Curt Class III Ball Mount with 2-5/16" Ball part # C45041 is not made in the USA but we do have options that are like the B&W Heavy-Duty Ball Mount part # BWBMHD30010. This is not a complete kit though so you'd also need to add the 2-5/16" Hitch Bal part # BWHB94050 and Gen-Y Hitch Pin and Clip for 2" Hitches part # 325-GH-096. This setup is over twice the price of the one you picked out and requires you to still torque the hitch ball but it's made up of all USA components.

The spare tire will need to be temporarily removed to install the hitch and then put back in place, or further forward if needed, after installation.

I would recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch for the 2002 Ford Van, item # 75703. This hitch is economically priced and can tow up to 6,000 pounds or 10,000 pounds with a proper weight distribution system, if your van has sufficient towing capacity.

    I called my contact at Curt and they told me that you can use the Curt Heavy Duty Forged Ball Mount, part # C45331 flipped over if you wish but you will probably have a heck of a time removing the ball. They said the ball is machine-torqued at 450 ft-lbs when it is attached to the drawbar. An option that may be easier on you would be to use a different ball mount and ball.

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C15409 Fit 2006 Dodge 2500 Mega Cab With OEM Hitch

  • Recommended Class V Hitch for 2006 GMC Sierra for Towing 10,800 lb Boat
    I'd recommend upgrading that hitch, ASAP. If the hitch fails while you're towing, causing an accident, your insurance company would be well within their rights to deny you coverage which would leave you wide open to all kinds of legal liability. Not a pretty situation. Usually, Class V hitches do indeed have a 2-1/2 inch receiver tube. However, companies like Curt Manufacturing, Draw-Tite and B&W have developed Class V hitches with a 2 inch receiver tube that are strong enough to be classified...
