Still haven't towed anything with it yet but it seems very solid. I do think it will rattle some in the receiver because it is loose in my 2" receiver on my 2019 F150.

I have used this quite a few times over the last year. I have used it in several different heights and it worked great. This is a very strong and heavy product that should last me a life time and on many tow vehicles.



by:

This hitch has worked out great for me over the last year. It’s very heavy duty and easy to adjust. I’ve hauled a 9,000 lb boat, long-distance on numerous occasions without issue. I also haul a landscape trailer on a daily basis weighing over 5,000lbs and haven’t had a single issue. Great hitch that was significantly cheaper than others and is very high quality. I’ve recommended it to several people and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy again. The only thing I would like to have now in a hitch is a tongue weight gauge, but it isn’t necessary.

It just so happens we offer a tongue weight scale as part # e99044...



by:

This is a great hitch. Highly recommend this hitch. This is my second curt hitch, first one was on my ford f450 but unfortunately that one wouldn’t fit on my new truck, do to shank size.



by:

I am very impressed with C45900 ball mount. Curt is an excellent manufacturer. The only thing I did not like are the snap rings on the pins. I have seen those get hooked unintentionally or be pulled to steal the ball mount. I replaced Curt's pins with Grade 8 bolts, drilled holes and secured with a padlock. It would be nice if someone made a locking hitch pin with enough span for the channel. I added the reflective tape for higher visibility. I live in Phoenix where they have a plant. Please run this idea by them and let me know what they think. The two locking hitch pins would only raise the price by $50. If you have a vendor who has longer pins please let me know. Using unsecured pins is asking for trouble. Thanks--Jerry

Pictures attached. Curt makes such great quality products. I love this new hitch.

Great hitch, after one year I still recommend. Get one!

Sorry to hear about this. Customer Service will contact you.



by:

I really like your products and the shipping of my hitch was very prompt



by:

Excellent product. Installed in minutes. I tow a 14 k lb dump trailer. Needed the additional rise on the hitch. The draw bar is adjustable so that I can tow my utility trailer as well. High quality like most products I have purchased from etrailer.com

Johnnyb

Very good except the Rubber s have worn causing hitch to vibrate



by:

Excellent product that fit my need perfectly. I tow with 2 trucks, one needs a drop and the other needs it up a bit. I usually leave it on one truck but I also tow 3 different trailers with it and was sick of having to carry all sorts of hitches.
I've had no complaints at all with it, I'd definitely buy recommend it to anyone.

After a year its still working great, no issues to report!!

@Shane Good deal, glad you're happy with the # C45900 ball mount!


by:

We need the ability for different vehicles to pull a trailer and this should work great but haven't had a chance to use yet.



by:

Thanx for a high quality hitch with low or no noise.I will be towing a 12000 lb 30Ft.Rinker.
The hitch is very easy to adjust.

Awesome Adjustable Ballmount..



by:

Great price. Worked perfectly. E-trailer always has what I am looking for with fast shipping. Great product and very well constructed.

Bryan

It works perfect. Adjustable so I can tow my boat, and dump trailer. Easy to use and still looks brand new.



by:

High quality build, high towing capacity, very flexible - will adjust to a wide variety of hitch heights. Reasonable price and fast delivery!



by:

Used it for the first time today. Appears to be very well made. Like the fact that it is much quieter pulling the boat after making the switch.



by:

Product was better than I thought. Welds looked great. Fit and finish were great. Shipping was fast and well pckaged



by:

I have had this ball mount on my truck for about a year now. Has held up well with no real issues. One pen did disappear earlier this year, but not sure if it somehow worked out on its own or if someone stole it. Replacement was easy to find. Easy to adjust, does not make any noticeable noise.



by:

The hitch worked great I bought this hitch plus a Curt Lunette ring C48660 for my pull truck. Used the hitch setup for the first time last night and worked flawless, I would definitely recommend this setup to my friends the price was great and the hitch is well built.Thanks etrailer



by:

I like the overall versatility of this hitch but the only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is because Curt is manufactured in the USA. The box I received says it was made in India! I hope this metal is strong and well made cause my horses lives depend on it.

Etrailer Expert

Thank you for your review. The Curt hitches are assembled in the USA but not the ball mounts. The only adjustable ball mounts that we carry that are made in the USA are the B&W adjustable ball mounts like part BWTS10040B.



by:

This hitch is as KISS as an adjustable hitch could be. Built very well, with good thick gussets, a solid receiver shank, perfect welds and a good powder coat. The fact the trailer balls are built from one forged piece means no worry about a nut loosening and no weld to potentially break. I would go ahead and recommend you buy two replacement rubber isolators and just go ahead and put them in the other two holes in the hitch so no matter where the ball is it has some contact with an isolator without having to move the one it comes with. I highly recommend etrailer, they have great prices and fast shipping and they put out a lot of very helpful videos and pictures of the products they are selling.



by:

Wroks great. I can adjust this hitch for all 6 of my trailers.



by:

Great product at a great price and shipped very fast. Your warehouse to my door in GA in less than 48 hours FREE! Thanks. I always enjoy dealing with your company.



by:

Just what I needed in a drop hitch. Very stout. Love the ability to change by 1 inch at a time.

Cody

6/8/2019

This has made life so much easier for switching around trailers and being able to load level everything. Should have bought one much sooner.



by:

Ordered Curt C45900 for my work truck. Chose this product because it's rated slightly above what I need, it's steel and highly adjustable. Etrailers website is very easy to navigate, has a lot of installed photos for comparisons and has fast shipping. Will continue to shop with Etrailer as needs arise.



by:

perfect product - super heavy duty, very fast delivery

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch Ball Mount

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2008 Volvo XC90
    For your 2008 Volvo XC90, the trailer hitch you want is actually the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13559. This is the only Draw-Tite hitch confirmed to fit. For your wiring harness, you will want the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118411. This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your Volvo XC90's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side interior trim panels in your rear cargo area. Once you've plugged in the T-connector,...

  • Fit of Curt # C45920 Channel Mount Pintle on Curt # C45900 Adjustable Ball Mount
    The Curt Channel Mounted Forged pintle/trailer ball will indeed fit in the 3 inch wide channel of the # C45900 or the # C45920 ball mount. I've confirmed this with my Curt representative.

  • Recommended Brake Controller, Ball Mount and Weight Distribution System for 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    Starting with the trailer brake controller, I highly recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. This is an excellent, proportional controller that will activate the brakes on your trailer at the same time and with the same intensity that you apply to them in your Jeep. It features an easy to read LCD display, storable settings, and continuous diagnostics that will alert you to any potential issues. This unit is well known for its reliability and ease of use. Based on my research, it looks...

  • Is there a Typical Hitch Height for a 2004 Chevy Blazer
    The coupler height of most trailers would fall somewhere in the 16 - 20 inch range. Measure from the top of your receiver down to the ground, and choose a ballmount that would place the trailer ball right in the center of that range, and you will be set for most trailers. An adjustable ball mount like part # C45900 might be a good option. It has a maximum rise of 5 inches and a maximum drop of 6 inches, so you can adjust the height exactly as needed.

  • Can Diversi-Tech 2-1/2 Inch Ball Mount, Part # DTALBM6825-3S, Be Used with 2-Inch Hitch Receivers?
    The Diversi-Tech Ball Mount, Part # DTALBM6825-3S, is intended for 2-1/2 inch hitch receivers as you noted. The sleeve is press-fit and is not removable. Generally hitch sleeve adapters are produced to allow smaller-size items to be used in larger receivers, for example a 1-1/4 inch hitch mount bike rack in a 2-inch receiver. Whenever any adapter is used the weight bearing capacity of the total system is reduced. Since this adjustable ball mount has a high maximum towing capacity of 12000...

  • Is a Class IV Trailer Hitch Rated High Enough for a 20 Foot Trailer and 1997 GMC C/K Pickup Truck
    A Class IV hitch such as # C14081 might actually have a higher capacity than your 1997 GMC C/K series truck (check the owner's manual) so provided that the trailers you will be towing now and in the future are within the capacities of the truck and hitch, whichever is rated lower, then you will be good to go. Curt trailer hitch # C14081 is rated for 10,000 pound gross trailer weight and 1,000 pounds tongue weight. When used with weight distribution it is rated for 12,000 gross trailer...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2011 Ram Pickup with Factory Bumper Hitch
    For your 2011 Ram 1500 without a factory hitch, I recommend the Class IV hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch # 14374. You could use an adjustable ball mount, like # C45900. This adjustable ball mount fits 2 inch hitch receivers, has a 6 inch drop, a 5 inch rise, and is rated for use with trailers up to 14,000 pounds. Because of the weight of your trailer, I also recommend using a weight distribution system. I have attached a help article with common questions about weight distribution...

  • Can Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount # C45900 be Used with Weight Distribution Head
    The Channel Style Adjustable Ballmount, # C45900, is not designed for use with a weight distribution head. Instead take a look at the attached link which includes all of the weight distribution shanks that we offer. You can use the filters on the page to narrow your search. For example, the Reese Weight Distribution Shank, # RP3215, provides a 10-1/4 inch rise and 6-3/4 inch drop when used with round-bar system and a 11-1/2 inch rise and 5-3/4 inch drop when used with a trunnion-bar system.

  • 2 inch Hitch Recommendation for Use with Curt Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900
    To use the Curt Adjustable Ball Mount part # C45900 on your 2015 Subaru Forester you'll need to have a 2 inch trailer hitch installed like the Draw Tite hitch part # 76182 which is a confirmed fit and is our best option. What I really like about this hitch is that it only has the hitch opening visible at the rear of the vehicle and doesn't cost nearly as much as the EcoHitch for your vehicle.

  • Determining Rise for Towing Trailer Level
    For your Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13172 on a 2014 Jeep Cherokee, you will have a height from the ground to the inside top of the receiver is 16 inches. I've attached a video that shows this. Then you will simply need to measure from the ground to the underside of your trailer coupler on level ground. Then you will do some simple math. If your hitch height is greater, use a ball mount with a drop--Hitch Height (A) - Coupler Height (B) = Drop (C). However, if your coupler height...

  • Best Hitch Receiver for a 2013 Chevrolet Express 1500

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 1983 Lindy II RV on a Chevrolet Frame
    I did a little research on your Lindy II RV and it was manufactured by Skyline. There are a lot of different motorhomes that were built on the cut-away van chassis, so the pictures you sent were extremely helpful. With the RV coming out that far from the rear axle, a hitch for the regular van won't work. We do however have universal-fit weld on hitches that you can have installed to allow you to pull your boat trailer. Depending on the drop you need from your frame to get under the...

  • Recommended Locking Hitch Pins for Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount
    To secure the Curt Channel Style Adjustable Ball Mount # C45900 to your vehicle, I recommend the Curt Lock Set # C23556. This lock set is designed specifically for channel-style ball mounts like this one. It includes a locking pin to secure the ball mount to the hitch receiver as well as a locking pin to secure the ball platform to the actual mount. This will do a great job at helping to deter theft of your valuables. I have attached a short video demonstration on this product so you...

We have pictures of this hitch on a 16 passenger van of other year models. You will also want the 1993 Ford Van T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118345.

  • Solution for Hitch Step for Truck With B&W Adjustable Ball Mount
    A hitch step like the Curt # C45909 is designed to fit inside of a channel. The design of a B&W ball mount like the # BWTS20049B would require a step that fit around the outside. Unfortunately, there are no options to add a step to the B&W. However, you could use a step like the Gen-Y # GY79VR. The only thing this would lack is the ability to adjust the height.

It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

    In order to determine the maximum gross trailer weight (GTW) that you can haul with your 2016 Chevrolet Traverse, you will need to find both the gross combined weight rating (GCWR) and the gross vehicle weight (GVW). If you subtract the GVW from the GCWR that will give you the maximum GTW you can safely tow. These figures can be found on the white tag inside your driver's door jamb. According to the owners manual for your 2016 Chevrolet Traverse. If you have the All Wheel Drive (AWD)...

    The Curt # C53HR will not prevent the hands-free liftgate feature on your 2017 Volvo XC90 from working. The only way it may impact is you likely won't be able to activate it with your foot directly under the hitch receiver but it will still work just to the side. If you're going to be towing with your Volvo, the wiring harness # 118683 is confirmed to fit. This will provide you with a 4-way trailer connector. It installs by plugging into the wiring which is behind both tail lights. For...

The Draw Tite Hitch # 76020 is going to be recessed about 6" behind the bumper on the 2023 Mazda CX-9. This is measured from the center of the hitch pin hole, to the farthest edge of the bumper. The Curt ball mount has a vertical support welded to the back of the channel only 4-1/8" from the pin hole. This would contact the bumper before it could be fully...

  • Selecting Ball Mount to Allow Trailer to Remain Level When Hitched to 2012 Honda Odyssey
    Passenger vans like the Honda Odyssey do sit fairly low to start with, and once you bolt on a hitch receiver and load some passengers and cargo, the bottom of that hitch tube can be pretty close to the ground. When we installed Draw-Tite hitch # 75270 on your vehicle we found that the hitch pin hole was 6-inches forward of the rear edge of the bumper cover. We also noted that the top of the receiver tube opening was 11-1/2-inches above ground level. This means the bottom on the hitch...
