The greaseless AlumiBall is a solid aluminum hitch ball topped with a nylon cap. The cap enables the coupler to rotate easily around the ball. This prevents the coupler from getting stuck during turns and makes the towing experience smoother. It also prevents greasy messes and does not require the purchase of lubricants. Nylon cap is replaceable.

I ordered my AM3405 and was amazed how quickly the etrailer team responded with not only my order confirmation but the fantastic follow up when it was shipped and delivered. I highly recommend etrailer and will order from them again.

The product showed up in great shape and I am very happy with the quality. One recommendation would be to order two of the locking pins. One for the receiver and one to lock the ball mount to the unit. You will see by my picture I resolved that issue with a pad lock but the locking pin would have been better.



by:

Works well, nice and light. Easy to adj ustment.



by:

This hitch is beautiful.



by:

Just installed, haven’t towed with it yet, quality after examination is spot on. The hitch lock set by Anderson towing products is very well machined.
Lori B. At etrailer answered all my questions, was polite and professional.
This is my first order from them but won’t be my last.

We really like the trailer hitch but the sticker with your name on it got skinned up can you send us a new sticker or two

Great products and customer service !!!

I bought this hitch to pull my horse trailer. The shipping was extremely fast and it looks great. I haven’t used it yet but I will be in a couple day to haul my mule to the vet. I expect this to perform as good as it looks!

Fast delivery and the quality looks gre at

in right on time to let Santa put it under the tree. Thank you!

Highly recommend this beast of a hitch. I have used it for many different size trailers and the ease of adjustment and changing out ball sizes is fantastic. Do not hesitate if you are in the market. I loved this hitch so much that I bought their ultimate 5th wheel hitch when I bought my toy hauler.

Original statement stands, this thing is just awesome!



by:

Brought this for my HD pickup truck to tow my 18 foot enclosed cargo trailer. It's good looking, functional, no future rust, and works great. I'm still out on the greaseless aspect of the hitch balls, but so far, so good.

I have had it a year and it works perfectly. Love it and it will not rust like my last one did. The greaseless ball cap works great so far. I would recommend.



by:

I thought it would be a better hitch for the money. It does not fit tight in the hitch receiver so it is a bit sloppy. The height adjustment and having a 2” and 2 5/16” ball is nice and convenient.

I recommend using an anti rattle device like part # C27UR to help reduce movement in the hitch receiver.



by:

The retaining pin would not fit in the hole to secure the ball mount assembly. I have ordered the locking pins to replace the unit supplied. If it doesn't work I'm returning. So far very poor workmanship

I would like to contact the manufacturer and I wanted to see if you could send a picture to show that it is not a fit.

Thank you for letting me know. The first pin should have worked however if you are happy now with the locking pin then that is fine. If you experience any other issues, please reach out to us.



by:

I was very happy with the customer service and the follow up on the order. Excellent customer service and expedited shipping..



by:

Hitch works great, no problems installing and like the adjustability of the system. Down side is that they have legs and will walk away if you don’t lock both the receiver and the riser so you have to buy two hitch locks.



by:

Purchased the Rapid Hitch Aluminum Ball Mount Kit w/2 Greaseless Balls and the Rapid Hitch Trailer Hitch Lock and Adjustment Pin Lock. Arrived very quickly. Arrived in great condition. Both appear to be made very well. I used the Rapid Hitch the next day and it worked great. Very happy with the hitch, ball, and the hitch lock and adjustment pin lock and etrailer.com.



by:

Perfect !!! The Rapid Hitch is an excellent example of American Quality ... the product is easy to install, easy to adjust for different trailer heights, and should be very durable with the greaseless balls and totally aluminum mount. I am very satisfied.
etrailer.com was very prompt with the shipping ... everything arrived in a sturdy box and well packaged to prevent damage.
As a result of this purchase and my satisfaction with etrailer.com I have made a couple additional orders for my trailering needs.



by:

I have a Rapid Hitch already and I love it I just need to because I have two trucks and get tired of not having the hitch in the truck I in. They are a very convenient way to haul trailers with different size balls and not have to have multiple hitches. etrailer was an awesome company to order from very timely. They keep you well-informed of when your order is shipped and when you will receive it. I will definitely order from them again



by:

Love the Teflon ball, no messy grease. The hitch is easy to adjust and easy to clean.

I still love this hitch. Easy to adjust, clean and stow



by:

Slips in the trailer like butter. Quite. Heavy duty and well made. Purchase the Rapid Hitch lock set. Standard locks wont work. Like buying from Etrailer. Fast delivery and great support.



by:

Hitch is excellent quality and fit. Very easy adjustment. Only suggestion I have is that it should have a longer shaft. The step on my truck doesn’t come down all the way before it hits the mudflats. The one complaint I have is in order to get a lock for the pin that holds the ball on you also have to get their hitch lock pin. Only sold as a set. If Andersen is going to do that they should include a coupler lock so all 3 would be keyed the same.



by:

Picked up an aluminum burr in my finger when unpacking the unit. There are some unfinished type of circles that are quite sharp and need to be filed smooth. Other than that, the unit looks great and I'm anxious to put it to use.

The hitch pin did not push through when I flipped the ball mount over into the receiver. I contacted the manufacturer twice and after two more replacements, the ball mount worked as advertised. The hitched looked great during the summer, but the winter road salt and sand took its toll, But at least its not all rusted and overall Im satisfied with the product.



by:

After having this Hitch I would not go back to a pain hitch. Looks great on my truck, works great with my trailer, easy adjustable to fit other (friends) trailers, and your shin is going to thank you!



by:

Fabulous! Extremely easy to change heights and sizes of the ball for my different trailers. Nice smooth towing with the greaseless balls.



by:

Nice product, clean, lite weight. Looks good as well.

  • What Is Overall Height Of Rapid Hitch Adjustable Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3405
    I went to the warehouse and measured the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit, part # AM3405. Depending on the orientation of the mount in the receiver on your truck the overall distance from the bottom of the ball mount with the ball in the furthest position is 3-1/2 to 9-1/2 inches. The overall height of the ball mount with the balls in the furthest rise or drop is 12 inches.

  • Aluminum Ball Mount For 2 Inch Hitch With 2-5/16 and 1-7/8 Hitch Balls
    There is an aluminum ball mount that will allow you to use both 1-7/8" and 2-5/16" hitch balls, but since there isn't a combo ball with those sizes together, you'd have to get the 1-7/8" ball separately. So you have two options depending on the drop you need: - 4" Drop: Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3461 - 5-1/2" Drop: Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit # AM3405 Both ball mounts come with a combo 2" and 2-5/16" hitch ball, so you'd also need to add...

  • Will the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount Work With A Rock Tamer?
    The Rock Tamer # ERT00108 you have will work with the Rapid Hitch Adjustable ball mount like this one # AM3405. It has two hitch pin holes so use whichever one that leaves a 1 inch gap between your hitch collar and the adjustable part of your ball mount so your rock tamer can mount.

  • Can 1-7/8 Hitch Ball be Used With Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount AM3405
    You can absolutely purchase the 1-7/8" hitch ball and use it in place of the 2" and 2-5/16" double ball mount that comes with the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit w/ 2 Greaseless Balls - 5-1/2" Drop # AM3405. The correct ball for this is the Rapid Hitch Ball with 1-7/8" Diameter - Greaseless AlumiBall # AM3452. To install the # AM3452, you'll need to remove the double hitch balls from the platform; there is a pin behind the mount that you'll remove which will free the...

  • Adjustable Hitch with 1-7/8" and 2" Hitch Balls
    I have a solution for you, but the Fastway # FA49-00-5625 does not have a combo ball with 1-7/8" and 2" hitch balls available. Instead, you'll want to use a Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount like the # AM3405 with a combo ball for 1-7/8" and 2" couplers like the Greaseless Combo Ball # AM3436; the steel version combo ball without the greaseless caps is # AM3425. This will allow you the flexibility to tow a trailer with both a 1-7/8" and 2" coupler.

  • Can Trailer Circuits Ground Correctly When a Greaseless Ball is Used
    Trailers that are grounding through the hitch ball are not grounding correctly. There is a ground circuit on trailer wiring that is supposed to be grounding all of the electronics of the trailer. Do some trailer still ground through the hitch and ball mount? Yes, but that's not how they should be grounding. If you've ever seen a trailer that the taillights flicker when they hit bumps its usually because the lights are grounding through the frame and hitch and when the coupler of the trailer...

  • Can the Diversi-Tech Adjustable Ball Mount # DTALBM6825 do 0 Inches of Rise/Drop
    The Diversi-Tech Adjustable Ball Mount # DTALBM6825 that you referenced can go from 8 inches of drop to 9 inches of rise in 1 inch increments. It will do 0 inches of rise/drop as well. If you are looking for an adjustable aluminum ball mount similar to the # DTALBM6825 that comes with greaseless ball you would want the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount # AM3405 that you referenced as this is the only option with that feature.

  • Is the Andersen Greaseless Ball Cap Compatible with a Regular Hitch Ball?
    The Replacement Nylon Cap for Greaseless HardBall Hitch Ball with 2" Diameter # AM3664-2 is not a fit for a regular 2 inch ball. There is not a Greaseless ball that measures 2 inch diameter with a 1-1/4 inch shank. My recommendation is to use the 2" Hitch Ball # A-90 and then use White Grease Hitch Ball Lube # 58117 to reduce friction and noise. Your option to get that greaseless ball is only in a ball mount like the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit w/ 2 Greaseless Balls...

  • Lock For Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount For 3 Inch and 2 Inch Receiver
    We can get you a hitch lock that will work with your 3 inch and 2 inch hitches, but there isn't a separate keyed alike option that allow you to use one key to lock the platform and the ball mount to a 3" and 2" hitch. So what you will need to do is get separate locks that use different keys in order to lock both the platform and mount with the Rapid Hitch Adjustable Ball Mount # AM3405 or # AM3460.
