Hey, everybody. Adam here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Draw-Tite two-inch hitch ball. So when it comes to hitch balls, one, you need to look at your coupler to see what size you are using. So with this one, it typically says it right up top, but it might be worn off. But that's where you'll find it.
It is a two-inch, so we're good there. Well, the next thing is, we wanna make sure that it works with our ball mount. So one thing we need to take into consideration is the hole that it goes through. So we wanna make sure that the hole is gonna be about 3/4 of an inch in diameter. And we have a 2 3/8-inch long shank.
So make sure that the platform that you're gonna be mounting it on is gonna be between 3/8 inches thick all the way up to an 1 1/4-inch thick. If it's any thicker than that, we're not gonna be able to thread it. And if it's any skinnier than that, we're not gonna be able to actually get it nice and tightened down. We do want to torque this down with a torque wrench just to make sure it's nice and solid. This one's gonna have a 3,500 pound capacity, and that's gonna mean a 350-pound tongue weight.
But just because the ball is rated for that doesn't mean that your ball mount's gonna be rated for that. And that doesn't mean that the hitch is gonna be rated. So we don't want to overload our hitch. We don't want to overload the ball mount. And, of course, the ball.
So make sure that these two are gonna be kind of in the same ballpark. And then also you wanna make sure that it's not gonna be overloading your hitch. There isn't really a whole lot to this. It's just chrome plated. It will rust over time. It's not just this one. It's pretty much all of them. So if you wanted to upgrade, I guess you can get an aluminum ball if you really wanted to keep it from rusting away, so it looks a little bit nicer. But all in all, that's basically it for a look at the Draw-Tite two-inch hitch ball..

All are doing finethank you very much for the follow-up!
I always go to etrailer first for anything I need for trailering equip. I bought this trailer ball however, the one that got sent was labeled correctly but the shaft was not correct and too short. Their customer service quickly fixed the situation by immediately sending me a correct ball and let me keep the previous ball for my trouble. The quality of this product is top notch and the ball is nicely chromed not like the picture.
My problem was the towing of my log splitter with a John Deere garden tractor with a 3/4" shank diameter and a dodge pickup with a 1" shank diameter. I ordered 2ea balls. one with a 1" diameter shank and one with a 3/4" diameter shank..
I give etrailer 5 stars for handling my order with Great Service.
Thank You!!!!!

Great deal for chromeI was delighted with Etrailer services. I bought 7 items with free shipping, and Etrailer delivered all of them in 7 days. Etrailer’s hitch ball chrome fit perfectly. It cost less than U-Haul and or dealer products. However, I have not used this product yet. I will keep you post it on wiring harness installation. I will come back and bring new customer for Etrailer and scored a perfect 10 for this product and services.
I ordered my Hitch Ball with 2" Diameter and Medium Shank 3,500 lbs GTW Chrome from the Internet at etrailer.com and it was enerything they said it would be. I received it in the amount of time it was to be delivered at a reasonable amount of time. I would recomend this company to anyone needs auto parts. They done a great job, Keep up the good work people. Thank you!!
Works very well and easy to install. Love the step by step installation instructions offered by your company.
The product was exactly what I ordered and came exactly when promised. Very good experience. etrailer had this non-standard length ball hitch in stock when no one else did.
What a nice company with excellent customer service. Molly took the time to advise that one of the products on my order was backordered. She further agreed to cancel the entire order and make a new order so as to avoid holding up the shipment and allowing me to take advantage of the free shipping. As far as the product is concerned it was delivered just as described and arrived timely. I highly recommend etrailer for all towing needs. I know I will buy again.
Ball has been great. A fair amount of rust discoloration, but not affecting performance at all
The trailer hitch and ball was better than described.
They arrived very fast.
I ordered a hitch ball on late tuesday night and I recieved it friday morning. Super fast shipping. I also had a problem with another product I ordered 5 months prior. I called cust. service and the woman I spoke with was extremely helpful, walking me through troubleshooting the device and if defective how to return it for replacement. I will recommend Etrailer to anyone.
All etrailer products have thorough descriptions to help you find the product you need.
Great product and the price is right!!! Fits well and works well! Thanks to great guys (and gals) at etrailer.com!!!
Works good, fits right. Took off one star because it was supposed to come in flat gray as pictured above but was delivered in polished chrome. No big deal, the important part was the long 3/4 diameter shank. It had a long shank in 3/4 inch diameter.
It's a 2" ball with a decent shank length. It was real easy to tighten with a single wrench, thanks to the lock nut.
Great ball hitch for the price.
Haven't towed yet, but fits perfectly on my 98 ford explorer bumber hitch.
Fits perfectly and appears to be a good quality item. No problems pulling my Boat or swamp buggy. Thanks, ACE
well packed, arrived very fast, good price. will order again.
thanks
