Stow the ball and mounting platform on this dual-ball ball mount beneath your hitch for a sleek look when you are done towing. Designed for use with your GM MultiPro tailgate. Tow up to 18,000 lbs.
Features:
Specs:
Note: To avoid the Tow & Stow hitting steep driveways or curbs, we recommend at least 11" of clearance between the ground and the lowest point of the drop hitch, as seen above.
The B&W Tow & Stow adjustable ball mount lets you tow a variety of trailers with different tongue heights. Having both a 2" ball and a 2-5/16" ball allows for even more versatility, making this the ultimate go-to ball mount if you own multiple trailers.
To switch the hitch ball, simply remove the pin holding the balls in place and rotate the entire block that the balls are mounted on until the ball you want to use is on top. Then replace the pin to secure the block in place.
Adjusting the height of the ball is just as easy. Remove the pins holding the ball mount platform in place and slide the platform up or down along the shank to the desired position. Once you have found the correct height, reinsert the pins and replace the clips.
When you're not towing, you can flip the ball mount platform around and stow it beneath your hitch so that you won't bang your shins. Just remove the pins to slide the ball platform down along the channel and up the back side so that the hitch balls face towards your vehicle. Then replace the pins.
The Tow & Stow ball mount features a channel that runs along both sides of the shank. This channel not only allows you to slide the ball mount platform up and down to adjust the ball height, but it also prevents removal of the platform when the ball mount is installed, which will help prevent theft of your trailer.
A slot is cut into the adjustment channel near the top of the shank. To remove the ball mount platform from the shank you will need to remove the entire ball mount from your hitch. Then remove the pins that hold the platform in place. Flip the platform around to the stowed position on the rear of the shank, and then slide it up until the center pin lines up with the slot in the shank. Pull the platform out towards the rear of the shank until the pin pops out of the adjustment channel.
When the Tow & Stow is secured in your hitch receiver, you will not be able to remove the ball mount platform. This is because the slot in the shank is positioned in such a way that the collar on your hitch will block the pin on the platform from being able to leave the channel. Even if the pins holding the ball mount platform in place are removed, the platform will still be confined to this channel. So, as long as a hitch lock is used to secure the entire ball mount in your hitch receiver, and a coupler lock is used to prevent your trailer's coupler from being disengaged from the ball, your trailer will be secure.

Stow the ball and mounting platform on this dual-ball ball mount beneath your hitch for a sleek look when you are done towing. Designed for use with your GM MultiPro tailgate. Tow up to 18,000 lbs.
I did remove the hitch during the Michigan winter trying to avoid salt; however, this hitch has performed perfectly. It works great with the MultiPro tailgate, allowing you to fully lower the gate without running into the hitch. The weight rating allows me to comfortably pull my 35 foot trailer with confidence.
I purchased this hitch to pull my seed tender when planting the hitch is just what I needed to get the correct ball height and I can use my multi pro tail gate when it’s installed. I would recommend looking into the B & W hitches and there gooseneck hitch with the handle.

This hitch is still towing heavy for long periods of time. Still works flawlessly. Only issue I’ve had was loosing the pins when using the cotter pins. They are pricey too. Other than that great product.

I have the new GMC MultiPro tailgate that some genius engineer invented and obviously was not a truck driving towing person, the tail gate comes down and hits the ball hitch. This ball hitch was designed to allow the tailgate to come down and not be damaged by the ball hitch. I love it. It works perfectly, and highly recommend it. I leave the ball in position and don't return or hide it.
Ordered the multipro tailgate hitch received it fast and was what I ordered
This hitch is the only one I have found that can be left in the receiver and not interfere with the GMC multipro tailgate. A well built high quality product from B&W.
Excellent product, took it out of the box, put it in the receiver and ready to go! And I can fully open my multi-pro tailgate
My husband was ecstatic when the hitch arrived! Now he won’t need to worry about smashing the tailgate when opening it.
The team at eTrailer filled this order sooo quickly. Given all the data and expert advise on the website and the fact that this team moved quickly to fulfill everything that I have ever ordered, this is a highly functioning company. Well done eTrailer!!!!
Just what my tailgate was looking for. Clears by about an inch.

Couldnt be better. And the fact that you can stow it away makes it even better. Great for going through the car wash.

Best hitch out there for my truck. I love it and the ease of stowing it away is the best.
Exactly what I needed for tailgate. Very well made
I love this 2 ball mount and is super heavy duty, love the fact that can be piu away and won't damage my tailgate door.
It is wonderful. Works great with my multi flex pro tailgate on my Chevy 2500 HD
this works perfect !! i have a GM multi tailgate & it clears it great
E-trailer shipped this product to me next day, with a 2 day delivery window.
Love having both of the ball options on one hitch. I use the smaller ball to pull my utility trailer and the larger ball for my center console fishing boat.
Anyone who owns a GMC truck with MultiPro tailgate must be extremely careful to stow away their traditional hitch or risk damaging the tailgate when it is lowered. This B&W Tow and Stow Hitch removes all those worries. GMC truck owners can now leave their hitches deployed, and still continue to have full use of the Multipro tailgate.
Fits tight and looks great. Now I can use my Multipro tailgate again.
Fits very loose in factory 2.5' hitch after 2000 miles of fairly light weight towing (5000 -7000 lbs.). Love the design for multi flex tailgate. Had multiple people panic, including me, the first time they see tailgate open with hitch attached.
Fast shipping and great price. Finally a hitch designed for the multipro tailgate.
Ordering and shipping was very fast and easy. Can’t wait to use the hitch.
I haven't this hitch or one like it yet. I bought the hitch before the truck.
A must have when you have a multipro tailgate!Fast Delivery and well made product.
Super easy to use and adjust. Clears the multipro tailgate on most height settings.
Awesome product and design! Keeps me from dent the poor design GMC multitailgate

After a year, the product still works great. Stainless steel pins have not corroded and slide well.
