Curt RockerBall Anti-Rattle Towing Kit - 2" Ball - 5" Drop, 4" Rise - 7,500 lbs

Somewhat disappointed in Curt with this product and I have always been a big Curt fan. The first one of these I ordered was the listed 3" drop unit. The base of the rocker ball is almost 1 7/8" tall so on a 4 inch drop ball mount its really only a 2 inch drop hitch so be aware when ordering. I had to send the first back and reorder the larger drop unit. When I received the larger drop unit I put it in the receiver like many other hitches I have used and proceeded to properly torque the ball down. Because the rocker ball has a pivot point its very important that it stay parallel to the receiver. Curt includes a sheet metal plate that shims in between the ball mount and the ball to prevent it from turning. The plate is no where near strong enough though and at 224 ft/lb the plate bent and the ball rotated. After the plate is bent it is almost impossible to get he thing torqued down right and lined up.1512235

Ball is not mounted. Pictures and videos show ball mounted. And when I have bought a “kit” in the past, the ball was mounted.
I can’t attach the ball myself and only reason I purchased from eTrailer was that pictures implied that the ball would be mounted.1263835

This ball mount comes to us from the manufacturer as a kit, without the ball mounted to the ball mount. We do have a ball mount with a 4 inch that comes with the ball torqued. It is part # C45154.

Nice solid piece with weight. The only issue I have is that the ball is only secured down with a bolt and not lockable to prevent theft.1274403

Heavy-duty hitch! Customer service in finding the right one at etrailor was excellent!1313562

This hitch ball works great no slamming back & forth when stopping are starting. Just the right height for my F150 with a 4 inch curt drop receiver. I would definitely purchased again. Ran it with an unloaded trailer & a trailer with weight around 2500 lb. You want be disappointed in the purchase.1600268

I was in the market.
Looking for some kind of dampening hitch.
But all the hitches I found We're over $300. I stumbled upon the Curt rocker ball . It was interesting to me so I had looked up some reviews on it. There wasn't any good reviews on it, but there also wasn't any bad reviews either.
So I decided to give it a shot,
Since it was pretty Inexpensive. Since then, I've had it for a year and a 1/2 now And it's been amazing.something so simple,That works very well. You won't notice it as much if the trailer already tows very well But the trailers that do a lot of jerking You will feel the difference.
A night and day difference.to me it reduced it by By 80%. Very good product!1768094

High Quality Part. Easy to install. I would buy again for another vehicle.

P.S. etailer.com did a great job getting me this part. They processed & shipped this order immediately. I also appreciate that they made it easy to track the shipment. Thank You etrailer.com, I WILL be placing more orders from your company. Thanks again.1755214

I just purchased a new hideaway hitch system. But the hitch sits only 15 inches off the ground at best. And, my trailer coupling is 22-23 inches off ground. So l needed 7-8 inches of rise on the new 1.25 inch receiver system.

Internet research took me to etrailer and the Brophy hitch. I got 5.5 inches with the Brophy hitch, the highest available for a 1.25 inch receiver I could find. The others are limited to 5 inches max. I added another 1.5 inches with your Curt shock absorbing hitch. Voila, with a combined 7 inches of rise and on level ground the trailer now rides perfectly level!!!! Both parts were very easy to connect.

Delivery was speedy. Thank you for saving the day and my investment in an expensive new hideaway hitch!1496129

Quality products. But the added height of this Curt shock absorbing rocker ball in combination with the 5-1/2” height Brophy bar, I still bottom out and scrape the inclined road to my house while towing my boat.1723494

on our NEW Ram 1500 truck this ball helps reduce the trailer vibration that gets transferred into the truck. it definitely helps with a smoother ride.1697331

Greatest difference is felt with a full trailer vs empty. For reference, I haul a 3700 horse trailer and with one or two horses on board, this makes a noticeable difference in the reduction of ‘jolts’ when road seams, potholes are encountered. No noticeable difference when empty, but I am rarely empty. Good value for outcome.1675363

Works great in taking out the "jolt" when making quick stops and starts1729078

I received my order one day late but everything turned out good and I already tried out the ball hitch and lock assembly and seems to tow pretty good so far1589172

Drove from San Diego to Alaska - smooth ride w/trailer...1672151

love using the rocker ball 1676070

Kimberly, our Sales rep, was incredibly patient and amazing and guided us through our options and availability. The products arrived on time and as expected. In a world of choices you all went above and beyond any expectations.1553553

Received product before due date however, both our WD Hitches do not have the standard piece to allow the Anti-Rotation Plate to be useful. Pictures attached.
Checking with etrailer to see what can be done before modifying either the ball or the hitches. Only other issue was packaging, it was well packed on bottom side but not on top which allowed the product to distort the box it was shipped in but it did come fully in tact with no visible harm. Mentioning this for future delivery of such items.808839

This all-in-one kit does everything it promises to do. I wish I'd learned about it sooner.1666418

Changed over from the conventional Ball. Noticeable difference after installing Rockerball. Makes the ride quieter and when braking no noises and no trailer play when braking or accelerating. recommended Product.970436

Like most any lock they can be a little temperamental after being out in weather a while, but a shot of lock lube or WD40 takes care of that. "Training the lock to your given key is a breeze, and I definitely like the convenience of not having to try and recall which key is needed to use them!1468933

Good idea, though actual towing feels chaotic. Pulling a 4,500 pound camper trailer with a F150 - Max Tow Package and this hitch causes the trailer to surge back and forth when braking, accelerating and/or rolling over bumps in the road. I don't know if my hitch is defective or not, but I will not be using this hitch anymore. The other issue is, when torquing the ball hitch to the specified 450 ft/lbs - the flanges that are supposed to hold the ball in place bent and I had to find an alternative to secure it from turning. 820623

Just received it. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but the quality is excellent!1633100
