E Series Dims

The Fastway Flash Series ball mount is strong, durable, and easy on the eyes, making it the best of both worlds. It's solid, aircraft-grade aluminum construction is durable, rust resistant, and sturdy enough to last for years to come. With a polished mirror finish, this ball mount will make any vehicle look fantastic.


The adjustable ball height 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.


Changing Ball Height and Replacing Balls

To adjust the height of the ball, remove the pin so that you are able to slide the ball platform up or down along the shank to the desired position. Re-insert the pin once you have found the correct height and replace the clip.


Switching the hitch ball is just as easy. Simply remove the pin holding the ball platform in place and slide the platform off of the shank. Flip the platform upside down so that the ball you want to use is on top. Then slide the ball platform back onto the shank and replace the pin.

Bought this hitch to tow my camper with my new 1/2 ton truck. Hitch was a little hard to get adjusted, but that could be i had never done it before. After watching several videos i got it close. I dont think it's perfect, but does its job. Only made 1 trip using it, but it was a 900 mile round trip. Didn't have any problems with sway, and hitch is very quiet when turning. Overall very good purchase hopefully get to use it more in the future.



by:

Works great and looks great! I ordered it because the dimensions from the truck to the ball is the same as a “standard” hitch so it didn’t protrude out very far. Others extend out far and are knee breakers.....can’t go wrong with this one.



by:

A year of almost daily use since purchase. This product is perfect. It is exactly what I wanted and needed. I tow an 18’ tandem axel trailer with heavy equipment on it six days a week. No problems ever! The adjustment is easy and switching ball sizes is a breeze... Thanks!!!



by:

Exactly what I was looking for to pull a new trailer. The hitch is just as advertised, and was delivered in just a couple of days. The locking pins are a nice addition, and match the ball mount nicely.



by:

Very nice quality and made in the USA. Got the fastway locks too to prevent ball mount from disappearing. Good service and selection from etrailer.



by:

Very sturdy hitch. Perfectly machined, easy to adjust, and looks really nice polished!

Looks amazing, came as advertised with quick shipping. Super easy to adjust for different balls and heights. No more swapping out receivers when I go from 2" to 2-5/8 tongues. Would have gotten 5 stars if a hitch pin was included, especailly at this price point. Interested to see how it holds up over time.



by:

It’s been a good hitch so far. I have no complaints. The 2.5 inch Rock Tamer mount just fits on my 2022 Superdutys factory receiver. I was real happy about that.



by:

Looks fantastic! Easy to adjust. Works like it should. I would recommend this product.
Only negative would be that I cannot lower my tailgate with this ball mount as it is tighter to the truck than most.
I drive a 2018 Ram 3500

  • How Do I Know What Rise/Drop I Need for Using an Adjustable Ball Mount on My 2021 Ram 2500?
    When considering what height of an adjustable ball mount you need on your lifted truck, it really depends on two factors: the height of your lift and the height of your trailer's coupler. When towing a trailer, you want to get the tow as level as possible. The way to measure your height needs is to measure from the ground to the coupler of your trailer. Then, you need to measure the ground to your hitch receiver opening. This will give you the height you need for installing (and also factors...

  • Is The Fastway Lock Set Compatible With e2 Weight Distribution Hitch?
    The Fastway Trailer Hitch Lock and Adjustment Pin Lock Set # FA86-00-3660 is only compatible with the ball mount platforms like the Flash # FA42-00-2400. With the Fastway e2 weight distribution you have to use the bolts and nuts since the hitch head has an adjustable pitch angle. We do have the BulletProof Hitches 2-Ball Mount # MD204 which you can use with the Weight Distribution Shank # 358WEIGHTDIST. This will allow you to quickly adjust the hitch height for the Fastway e2 for different...

  • Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount With 2-5/16" Hitch Ball for 7,000 lb Trailer
    So the answer to the exact adjustable ball mount you need really depends on the amount of rise or drop you require. If you aren't sure how to measure for that, I've added a link to a help article detailing how to determine that. With that in mind, I'll give you some options, and I also want to point out that adjustable ball mounts do come with both a 2" hitch ball and 2-5/16" hitch ball, though if you never need the 2" ball you can simply store it away. I recommend the Flash E Series...
