Specs:
This adjustable ball mount has a maximum capacity of 30,000 lbs, making it ideal for heavy-duty towing. The solid steel construction is strong enough to handle large trailers and heavy cargo, and the matte powder coat finish will protect the ball mount from rust and corrosion, even after repeated use. The BulletProof Hitches adjustable ball mount gives you the strength you need to tow your big loads. And its durable, long-lasting construction can stand the test of time.
Because of its sturdy steel construction, this BulletProof Hitches adjustable ball mount can handle loads up to 30,000 lbs, making it perfect for heavy-duty towing jobs.
The adjustable channel is made of 5/16" thick, laser-cut steel plates. These steel plates can handle high capacities without bending. And because of the laser cutting, the channel plates have consistently sized pin holes, so you can easily remove or reposition the hitch ball platform.
A 1/2" thick steel gusset is welded between the shank and the channel, bracing the mount and keeping the channel from bending, even at the maximum drop or rise.
The solid steel shank is CNC -chamfered, making it easy to slide the shank into and out of your hitch receiver. And with no sharp edges on the shank, the powder coating is less likely to chip and peel.
Each adjustable mount includes a 2-ball platform, which fits in the adjustable channel. The 2 hitch balls are welded onto the solid steel platform for maximum strength and stability.
Finally, the pins and clips included with the ball mount are made of heat-treated steel to withstand the heavy weight from your load. The nickel undercoat with zinc topcoat provides corrosion resistance and ensures the strength of the pin.
To set up this BulletProof Hitches adjustable ball mount, insert the 2" x 2" shank into your hitch's receiver. Slide the 2-ball platform into the adjustable channel, then use the included pins and clips to secure the platform at the height you need. If you need to switch hitch balls, just remove the pins and clips, flip the ball platform over, and reinsert the pins and clips to secure the balls in place. It's that easy.
Because of this mount's significant drop, it's recommended that you install a stabilizer kit (358stabilizerbars - sold separately) to prevent any wobbling and to remove strain from your hitch receiver.
This BulletProof Hitches adjustable ball mount is compatible with a wide variety of accessories (sold separately). Instead of using the included ball to tow, you can install a weight distribution shank (358WEIGHTDIST) in the channel of the mount to attach your weight distribution system. Add a clevis (358CLEVIS) or shackle attachment (358EDSA) for off-road or recovery operations. Or simply add a hitch step (358STEP) to easily access your truck bed.

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today we're gonna take a look at this BulletProof Hitches adjustable 2-ball mount for 2-inch hitches. Now this adjustable ball mount has a maximum capacity of 30,000 pounds, making it ideal for heavy-duty towing. This shank is gonna slide into your 2-inch hitch receiver on your vehicle. And this is gonna be ideal for vehicles with a 22 to 24 inch clearance from the ground to the bottom of the inside of your receiver tube. Now the adjustable height lets you tow trailers of different heights with the same vehicle. And this hitch ball platform is gonna slide up and down the channel and it secures in place with the included pins and clips.
And what I'm really impressed about with BulletProof Hitches is that they're very easy to remove these pins and to replace. And as you can see, those pins slide right out. I currently have this on the 2 5/16th inch ball and I'm just gonna flip this around and move it to a lower setting and replace the pins. And as you can see, compared to some other ball mounts, these pins slide in very easily, so you're not gonna be struggling with these pins as you adjust your ball mount, it's gonna be very easy to adjust. Speaking of these pins and clips, they are made of heat-treated steel to withstand the heavy weight from your load and they also have a zinc finish, which provides corrosion resistance.
And the 7 adjustment holes with the 5 mounting positions are available providing a maximum drop of about 9 1/4 inches and a maximum rise, when you flip this over, of about 9 1/2 inches. The adjustment hole diameter is 5/8 of an inch and you can tow up to 12,000 pounds with the 2-inch ball or 30,000 pounds with the 2 5/16 inch ball. The maximum tongue weight capacity is 6,000 pounds and the hitch balls are welded to the ball platform for extra sturdiness. So again, this is built for heavy-duty applications, very rugged and very long lasting. This is made in the USA of heavy-duty steel construction that's strong enough to handle your large trailers and heavy cargo and this matte black powder coat finish is going to protect the ball mount from rust and corrosion.
Even after repeated use, this finish is not going to easily peel or scratch off at all. It's a very thick coating. So again, I'm very impressed with just the quality, especially of this powder coat finish. Now the solid steel shank is chamfered, as you can see right here, making it very easy to slide the shank into and out of your hitch receiver. With no sharp edges on the shank that powder coating is less likely to chip and peel.
The hitch pin hole diameter is 5/8 of an inch and it is important to note that the pin and clip or hitch lock for securing to your hitch receiver are sold separately, so if you do not do not already have a pin and clip or a hitch lock, we do have several options here at etrailer.com. I would definitely recommend getting a hitch lock to secure your investment. This adjustable channel is made of 5/16 of an inch thick laser-cut steel plates. And these steel plates can handle high capacities without bending and because of the laser cutting, the channel plates have consistently sized pin holes. So again, as I mentioned, you can easily remove or reposition the hitch ball platform with no problem. Now, one of the highlights of a BulletProof Hitch adjustable ball mount is their gussets. This is a half-inch thick steel gusset that is welded between the shank and the channel, bracing the mount and keeping the channel from bending even at maximum drop or rise. And the adjustable ball mount is, this adjustable ball mount is compatible with a wide variety of accessories, which are sold separately. So for instance, instead of using the included ball to tow, you can install a weight distribution shank in the channel of the mount to attach your weight distribution system. You could add a clevis or shackle attachment for off-road or recovery operations, or simply add a hitch step to easily access your truck bed. Check out the related product section of this product page to check out those options. Now I do wanna mention that we have a detailed diagram of all the important measurements on this product page to help you determine if this will fit your application. Now this weighs about 58 pounds, so does have quite a bit of weight to it, again, just adds to the durability and the heavy-duty nature of this ball mount. And this is SAE J684 certified, and this does have a limited lifetime warranty. Now, BulletProof Hitches adjustable ball mounts are rigorously tested for heavy-duty applications. These ball mounts are used and trusted by various United States government organizations such as the Department of Transportation and the Department of Homeland Security and all branches of the United States military. Well, that's gonna conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me..

The thick channel plates and welded gusset on this solid steel ball mount make it perfect for heavy-duty use. Tow up to 12K with the 2" ball or 30K with the 2-5/16" ball. Adjustable design lets you tow trailers of various heights.
The folks at eTrailer come through for me again with another great product - this hitch gives me the high towing capacity I need (that the pretty polished hitches can’t) and the adjustability I need for my varying trailers and trucks. As always, the eTrailer service and fast shipping is the best in the business! I love these guys!
The hitch is amazing. If you want to continue using safety chains you will have to run chains to the receiver above the ball then to the trailer chains. I modified mine and it works. Or just don't attach the chains properly. The regular set up for the chains probably wont work because the receiver hangs down so low. This is nothing negative against the receiver. With a drop like this it was to be expected.
Still functioning and looking as excellent as it did the day it arrived. Well built hitch, truly fits my needs.
I need a solution for my BMW SUV to tow my boat and trailer with two ball sizes and very different height requirements. This worked perfectly. The name Bulletproof fits well - I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and engineering.
I am totally shocked by the weight and quality of the product. Not even one scratch on the finish. It shipped from Illinois to Dallas in only 3 days for free. Now I know why they are called BulletProof. Perfect for my lifted truck. I wished I had gotten this a long time ago!
Awesome product and great price. This Bulletproof hitch is definitely well built. I see no problems ahead with this hitch.
I bought this hitch just under one year. To date, the hitch has performed fine. HOWEVER, the cheap powder coating has turned the entire hitch into a an eyesore. Its just rusting like mad, and the powder coat is now flaking in large chunks. Looks like crap on the back of the truck. I don't even live in an area where salt accumulates or they use it on the roadway.
Sent me the wrong hitch. Ordered the 6” drop, received the 4” drop. Hitch itself is ok, powder coating wore off ball and where it goes into receiver on first use.
Fast delivery, well packed, and the hitch is bad a**, heavy duty quality and very versatile. If your looking for an adjustable hitch this is what you want!!!
Beyond expectations. People come by complimenting on my hitch and asking where I bought it. I did not realize other hitches break. Well, this one won't break
Alex was great to work with. When I called he took the time to understand what I needed and help to find a solution. This was not the first time I have purchased from eTrailer nor will it be the last.
Overall appearance is fantastic. Very heavy and appears to be indestructible. We will see how it holds up over time.
Extremely noisy. Powder coat peeled almost immediately and the tolerances on the pins makes this rattle horribly. I finally got so sick of the noise I cut foam to put between the ball mount and receiver. This hitch has not seen much use and only for light duty (under 10k lbs). I won't buy another one. All of the other hitches we have are Andersen Rapid Hitch. I tried this after all the claims by BulletProof on how great they are. Very disappointed
Well packaged, fast shipping, it's going to give me the adjustability I need on my hitch and maintain the hitch towing capacity.
I own several adjustable 2-1/2" hitches and like this one a lot. It isn't terribly heavy for being steel and is very easy to adjust. I like the pins versus the key-operated mechanism on my aluminum adjustable hitch. Works great with my Chevy 2500 and various trailers and boats from 5000 to 14000 lbs.
My first and ongoing impression with your company: Friendly, competent people providing quality services. The hitch is everything I hoped it'd be, and should provide years of dependable service. Thanks again! I will use your outfit again without hesitation and tell others the same..
So far I am extremely happy with this hitch. It is very heavy duty. My towing capacity has changed and needed to upgrade to a heavy duty hitch. I have no doubts this is going to be Bulletproof!! It is very well built and a solid shank.
The hitch looks very well made. I recently made some changes to my 02 F250 and needed a drop hitch.I mostly pull a #10000 GTW equipment trailer but occasionally pull a #14000 GTW dump trailer and a utility trailer with a 2" ball. This hitch fits my needs perfectly.
Worst customer service ever. Took almost two months for them to deliver my purchased items to me. After a few weeks of phone calls asking where my stuff was they finally delivered my items, later than the 5-7 business days they promised as well. I will never buy anything from this website again.
Fast shipping! Great service! This is my go to place for all my trailer & towing needs
Our hitch arrived fast. The box was marked a different size than what we ordered. A quick phone call to them helped us determine what we received was what we ordered and needed. Thank you.
I purchased the 2-1/2" Bulletproof Adj Ball Mount for my 2019 RAM 2500 (Laramie, 4WD, 20" Rims&Tires, Off-Road Suspension) to have 1 mount for various trailers. This replaces various 2" mounts used on my 01 Silverado 2500. This is one serious, substantial piece of equipment! Heavy, good welds, nice powder coating! Pix compares this mount with a 7500# 2" Draw-tite mount. Nothing wrong with the Draw-tite, but no comparison in mass.
Some measurements, if interested: Truck: inside top of Receiver: 25" above grade. Bottom of mount without balls: 9-3/4" above grade (clearance). With 2-5/16" ball up: At lowest point: Top of Ball: 17" above grade. bottom of 2" ball: 9-1/4" above grade (clearance). At highest point: Top of Ball: 26-7/8" above grade. With 2" Ball up: At lowest point: Top of Ball: 16-1/2" above grade; bottom of 2-5/16" ball: 8-3/4" above grade (clearance). At highest point: Top of Ball: 26-1/2" above grade.
etrailer shipped quickly, only in original box from Bulletproof, with no exterior shipping box, but box was completely taped, so package arrived in good shape.
1 minor complaint: no pin included for securing mount into receiver.
