Video Transcript for Draw-Tite 3 Inch Hitch Ball Mount Review 40700

Hey, everybody. Adam here with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the Draw-Tite Ball Mount. So this one's gonna be a big boy for your three inch hitch receivers. It's made of forged steel, so it's all one solid piece, has a black powder coated finish. But this is gonna be for those massive trailers that you have.

It has a gross trailer weight capacity of 21,000 pounds and a tongue weight of 2,100 pounds, which is kind of on the higher end. It's gonna give us a four inch drop or a two inch rise. And to do that, all you got to do is pull the pin and clip out. You will have to grab one of these and just make sure it's 5/8 in diameter, and definitely grab a locking one just because it's going to run off on you pretty easily. It takes like two seconds for someone to steal this out of your hitch receiver, so definitely do that.

But you can either have it like this or you can have it like this to get the rise and drop. And if this isn't like the perfect rise and drop combination for ya, what you can do is you can just get a ball that has a little bit lower or a little bit taller foot right here, so it's just gonna give us an inch or two inches of rise, just the ball itself. So you're not really stuck with four inch drop or a two inch rise. You can kind of get a little bit more out of your ball mount just by picking the different ball. When you are picking the different ball, we want to make sure it lines up and make sure that it's gonna be able to carry this 21,000 pound capacity.

This one is 20,000 pounds so we're limiting ourselves right off the bat. So if we get one that's a little bit bigger or heavier duty, we won't be limiting ourselves at all. When we are looking at trailer balls, we need to make sure that the shank of the ball is gonna be an inch and a quarter because we don't want to have any play there, and this thing fits in there perfectly. Since this is such a big boy ball mount, we want to make sure there's no slop or play in the shaft there. If you really like this type of ball mount, Draw-Tite does make some with a lot more aggressive drops and a lot more aggressive rises.

So if you like this, we have other sizes on our website. That's basically it for our look at the Draw-Tite Trailer Ball Mount..

No more sloppy fit with a 2" spacer in this F350 3" receiver. This 3" hitch is tough.
Best price - local or internet and good shipping.



by:

Carol,I am sure the product I received will be perfect just like your service. I did send you pictures of how I received the damaged carton. Thank you for making it fight within a few days. I will have to say that you folks are perfect in making customers satisfied even though we encountered a problem which had nothing to do with your company but a poor handler you sent it through.
Once again, thank you. Jack K Sunahara

Draw tite ball mount is heavy duty and well constructed. Ordering and shipping was flawless. Great service and follow up



by:

This thing is a beast. When I picked the box up it was in it felt almost as if they sent the hitch that bolts to the truck. It’s cast iron not mild steel.



by:

This receiver hitch had the specs I wanted and fir the receiver perfect



by:

Perfect, just what we needed for our 2019 F-350. Not too bulky like the adjustable ones.

tl;dr good experience with warts. The etrailer-branded ball mount kit I ordered was back-ordered for a month, which was fine. Eventually Ashley E told me it would be a _second_ month. Not fine. She helped me configure a new order of third party parts. Shipped in one day. Great! Not great: Parts were just thrown in a box with no protection. UPS did their usual thing. Paint was chipped in a couple of places; would surely rust. I'll shoot these spots with some spray paint before installation. Hope that's a fix. I can't afford to diddle with a return.



by:

the ball was missing in the package the rest was ok, delivered when expected but had to go fish out from UPS as the package was not accepted due to damaged container. all was ok but no ball on ball mount ?



by:

I needed an extended ball mount for my new Jeep in order for my utility trailer tongue to clear the rear mounted spare tire. Item is as described on the web site and was received earlier than expected.
etrailer has great customer service and is my number one go to place for towing and trailer supplies.



by:

Sara R was helpful helping me find the right hitch for what I described as needing.
I was excited to see the hitch pin in my order details even though I didn't order it. Sadly, the picture gave me a false impression.
Overall, excellent customer service and product.



by:

Almost everything about this combo is great my only concern is the locking clip wraps around a notch in the pin instead of sliding through a hole in the pin., otherwise the insert and ball work well on my Subaru Wilderness.



by:

I had previously purchased the etrailer hitch for my 2021 Ford Transit 150.
It was a little short in length and the bumper prevented my current ball mount from working. As always, etrailer had the perfect solution. The Draw-Tite is well made and will now remain permanently with the van to be handy whenever the need arises.
