Video Transcript for Tow Ready 2 Inch Long Shank Hitch Ball Review
What's up everybody, Adam here with etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the tow-ready hitch ball. So this one is going to be for your two-inch couplers. So just look on your coupler, make sure you have a two-inch before you grab this one. And it is going to have a max gross trailer weight of 7,500 pounds. The things you need to look at whenever you're pairing this up with a ball mount, you just want to make sure that we're not really limiting this.
So we want to kind of match it up to the corresponding capacity of our ball mount, just so it's a good system together, and it can handle everything you want to use it for. So with this, basically, all you need to look for as well with your ball mount. So we want to make sure this plate is not going to be any thicker than inch and no thinner than a half an inch. And the reason for that is the shank, AKA the threaded portion of our ball, is going to be about two and one-eighth inches long. It's going to have a diameter of an inch.
So another thing is the hole on our ball mount, we want to make sure that's an inch as well, just so it's a nice snug fit. And we have a nut on the bottom. It's going to be a one-inch nut, but the socket, you're going to want to grab a inch and a half socket to torque this down. And when it comes to ball mounts, with this one, we're going to want to torque it down to 250 foot pounds, which is a lot. So make sure you have a breaker bar or a torque wrench, whatever, just to make sure that you torque it down properly, just so this thing doesn't come undone whenever you're going down the road.
When it comes to trailer hitch balls, it's just kind of comes down to what size you need, what capacity you need. And when it comes to the finish, it doesn't matter what finish it has unless it's aluminum, it's gonna rust away. So don't expect to grab this ball and not have it rust away every time. There's just so much going on and so much metal on metal contact that it will rust away and that's with any other ball mount. It's still gonna work, but it's not going to look as pretty as it does now.
So if you really wanted to upgrade and prevent that from happening, you can go ahead and grab a aluminum ball. We do have some here, and you can pair that up with an aluminum ball mount, just so nothing's going to rust away. But when anything is made of steel, doesn't matter what kind of coating it is. It will eventually rust away after a year or so of use. When it comes to the trailer hitch balls, really all you need to make sure of is that it's the right size for your trailer. Make sure that it has a big enough rating for the trailers that you plan on hauling. And then we do want to make sure we pair it up with the right ball mount. We have a lot of options, so it shouldn't be that difficult for you guys to find the right setup for you. But this one it's basically kind of covers all those areas. I mean, I don't really haul massive trailers, but with this, it's really perfect for the middle of the road guys, you know, it'll take care for your smaller trailers, but also your bigger trailers. So as long as you take all this information from this video, I really do think this is going to cover a lot of those bases for you guys. And it's going to be a great option for you as well. And that's basically it for our look at the tow-ready hitch ball..

The high and strength of this hitch are great. The bushing helps with harsh movements between van and popup, but it does cause a bouncing feel at certain speeds. Quality product otherwise.
by: Pete04/04/2024
We had to change out the receiver as the one I originally order left the hitch ball to close to the bumper. We easy return and very fast delivery. Very customer oriented and great service! Answered all my many questions! Would definitely buy from them again!!

Just missing the 2" ball.Talk to Madison and it's on its way Tues.Thank You etrailer.

Please add some foam or cardboard box to stop the item from moving around or to stop it from breaking out of the box. Do a better job at protecting the heavy item.Thank You !

Could not find what I needed on line, so I called. Spoke with Paula. She was instrumental in finding what I needed in a short time. My order went out that day. Shipment arrived on time.

No problem with the ball, shaft, or nut working with the hitch. Like the square sides for wrenches.

Easy on easy off. Used it dozens of times, still like new.

I ordered the Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches. My order was delivered fast, but it only came with one ball where two were specified. George and Paula got on it immediately and I received the missing ball in just 3 days. Nice recovery team! I would have given five stars for the product quality, service, and delivery had it been a complete order from the start, but that said, great service!

was easy to install the 2 ball and nut after installing the tow hitch. etrailer makes everything so easy. will order from them again.

FAST FAST SHIPPING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to me 5+ stars all the way around,,, if I ever need anything again and etrailers has it I will order again,,,, could not ask for better,,, I don't get excited about to many companies but etrailers is top notch

Very pretty, it fits perfectly, and I am sure this hitch ball will get the job done.
by: Mark 09/02/2023
The 2" heavy-duty (7500#) ball for my drawbar came today, within a week of ordering it. It was reasonably-priced and should work great. The etrailer video and installation instructions will help me get it torqued to specs. Great service and product line.
by: Timothy E.03/01/2017
Great products and service. I was able to order everything I needed to add a tow hitch and ball to my 2006 Jeep liberty. Very fast shipping. They even called me to verify orders and availability. Clear and easy to follow installation instructions. I hauled an U-Haul trailer from Texas to Ohio without any issues. Even bought a trailer and use it frequently for hardware stoe runs.
by: Richard 09/13/2023
Got the trailer far enough back to open my tailgate and working great.
by: Gary06/13/2020
The quality of this product is fantastic and it assembled with no problems and makes my rv / toad I pull a perfect match. I will continue to do business with (etrailer.com) much more in the future. The following photos are of my 1988 Fleetwood Jamboree and my baby (rare 1982 Toyota Corolla Station Wagon) all connected up and the 9" drop towing bar makes my Toyota towing very easy and safe at a level condition with my RV. Also look at the new LED lights installed to dress up my older RV, also purchased from Etrailer.com. I am a happy camper and highly recommend purchasing from them.

Correct item, correct fit, on time. Patient help from Jamie B.
by: Neil G03/11/2018
Thank you for such prompt service. I put this on my Polaris 570 mid size Ranger. The problem was a normal hitch was under the bed and a 2 inch rise was a bit too low for a level trailer. This fixed the problem moving the ball out further and higher. Much easier to hook up. I would recommend your company to others.
by: 11/11/2023
It was a good fit for the ball mount.
by: John D.09/16/2016
Love the hitch, ball mount, ball and wiring harness. All were a breeze to install.

I haven't used this often, but did haul a 5x8 trailer 1300 miles, and no issues.

- Trailer Hitch and Towing Equipment Recommendation for 2012 Land Rover Ranger Rover Sport HSEFor a trailer hitch, I'd recommend the Curt Class III, part # 13456. The # C13128 hitch you'd looked at is for the Land Rover Evoque, and wouldn't fit your Range Rover Sport. Please note, if your Range Rover Sport has the full-sized spare tire, it will no longer fit under the vehicle once the hitch is installed. For a trailer wiring harness, I'd recommend the # C59496. For a ball mount, use # C45030 and # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball. You will also need a pin...
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2015 Honda Odyssey for Towing Jet Ski TrailerThe Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76025 that you referenced is a great option for your 2015 Honda Odyssey and I like it for the same reason you do. This particular hitch does indeed have a hidden crosstube design so only the 2 inch receiver is visible, allowing for a really clean look behind the Odyssey (see attached image). This is a Class III hitch and it has a towing weight capacity of 3,500 pounds. I have included an installation video that you can use for reference....

- Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness Fit for 2020 Ford Escape Titanium HybridAs long as your Escape Titanium Hybrid isn't a PHEV model, we do have a hitch fit and a trailer wiring harness for you. I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part # C23FR. For a wiring harness fit, I'd recommend the Tekonsha # TE54FR. For a ball mount, use # D-28 along with a # PC3 hitch pin. For a trailer ball, use # 40038 for a 1-7/8 inch or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball.

The capacity of the Curt 13494 Class III hitch which we offer as # C67JR is 4000 lb towing/600 lbs tongue weight, which is actually greater than the capacity of the vehicle.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Fit for 2020 Ford EscapeYour 2011 Escape is a 2nd generation and the 2020 is a 4th generation, so unfortunately there are significant differences in the rear structure of the vehicle that prevent the hitch from your 2011 from fitting your new 2020. The good news is that there are thousands upon thousands of 2011 Escapes still on the road, and there's likely a market for a used hitch if you were to post it on a buy/sell/trade type website and use the proceeds to defray part of the cost of a new hitch.

I looked up your kayaks, and found that Old Town lists the weight of the solo as being about 40 lbs with a length of 9-1/2 feet and the tandems as being 60 lbs each with a length of 13-1/2 feet. The kayaks sizes and weights would be compatible with both the Rack and Roll trailer and the carriers...

- 10 inch Rise Ball Mount with 2 inch Hitch Ball OptionsThe Gen-Y stacked adjustable ball mount part # 325-GH-315 does have ability to provide 10 inches of rise as well as has a 2 inch hitch ball that you could use. If you were wanting a standard ball mount you could use the part # 80248 with the 2 inch ball # 63845 and you'd be set.

Another option is to add a trailer hitch receiver, like the Draw-Tite Class I Sport Frame # 24915, a ball mount # 3593, and hitch ball # 63845. You may need a ball mount with a larger rise than that so I've linked our most popular fits for your Soul. This will give you ability to tow a trailer like the Yakima Rack and Roll # Y08106.

If the install procedure and how the hitches fit on the vehicle are compared, the etrailer # e98846, Draw-Tite # 75902 and Curt # C13204 are for the most part identical. The Curt and the Draw-Tite # 75902 feature a shiny powder coat finish while the etrailer model has a matte, non-shiny finish. Purely a matter of personal preference. The Curt and etrailer models have the same 3500 lb towing/525 lb tongue weight capacity while the Draw-Tite...
view full answer... - Recommended Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch and Towing Supplies for 2012 Chevy Traverse LSI'd recommend the Draw-Tite Class III receiver hitch, part # 75528. The hitch has a towing capacity of 5000 lbs which would be able to accommodate your pizza oven trailer with no issue. You'll also want to add a trailer connector, part # HM40975 which will mount to the tab on the hitch for a professional looking installation. You'll also need a ball mount like part # D-4 and a trailer ball like # 63845 for a 2 inch or # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. You'll also need a # PC3 hitch pin.

I'll start by saying that it appears that your 2019 Honda Odyssey has a towing capacity of 3,500-lbs and a tongue weight capacity of 525-lbs; you'll want to check your owner's manual for confirmation on that information. All of the hitches mentioned will allow...

To determine what ball mount you would need to tow your trailer level you will want to take your trailer on level ground, with the trailer sitting as level as possible and measure the distance from the bottom of the coupler to the ground. How many inches that is above or below 10 inches is the amount of rise/drop you need. So if you measure 14 inches...
view full answer... - Will Installing Hitch on 2011 Subaru Outback Increase Vehicles 200 lb Tongue Weight CapacitySince any towing system will be limited by the capacity of the lowest rated component, you'll be limited to the 200 lb tongue weight capacity of the vehicle, even though the Curt # C13410 hitch itself has a 600 lb capacity. I couldn't speak to why Subaru limits the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle to 200 lbs, in many cases it's because the structure of the vehicle where the hitch attaches cannot withstand more than a limited amount of downward force. Using rear helper springs or...

The solution is an extended ball like the Brophy Ball Mount - 3" Rise, 4" Drop - 14-5/8" Long - Aluminum - 8,000 lbs # EA40. An extended ball mount will give you extra room between your vehicle and trailer. I have attached a link to the extended ball mounts that we offer.

view full answer... - Trailer Wiring Harness for 2004 Hyundai Santa FeI'd be happy to help you with that. Along with the Draw-Tite # 41543 hitch you'd looked at, you'll need the # 118473 trailer wiring harness. The harness is a plug and play installation, and would plug inline at the connection point where the vehicle's taillight wiring harnesses plug into the taillight assemblies as shown in the video I've linked for you. You'll also need a ball mount like # C45010 with a pin and clip # PC3, as well as # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.

The frame brackets on the Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution System part # 66557 can be positioned between 25" - 32" back from center of coupler. This will then allow a minimum of 3" between the end of the friction pad and the end of the spring bar which will be needed to ensure that the spring bar does not fall out when turning. If you take a look at the attached install instructions this will then give you all of the info that you need...

The Curt # C64NR is a concealed design, meaning that the majority of the hitch would be concealed behind the Odyssey's bumper when the hitch is installed with just the receiver and safety chain loops being visible. Because of the concealed design, the bumper cover would need removal to install the hitch and would be reinstalled afterward. The Curt # C13370 is...

- Ball Mount For Towing a 2,000LB Trailer With EcoHitch Receiver 306-X7221 Installed on a Nissan LeafTo determine the correct ball mount for the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7221 that fits the 2013 - 2021 Nissan Leaf you will need to know the height of your trailer coupler. This measurement needs to be taken with the trailer level to the bottom of the coupler. When we installed the EcoHitch Receiver on a 2020 Nissan Leaf we found the receiver height to be 12" to the inside top edge of the receiver tube. The hole for the hitch pin was 4" from the rear edge of the bumper....
view full answer... - Class III Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2015 Subaru XV CrosstrekThe Curt Class III hitch, part # C13135 would be an excellent choice for your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek. When installed, the hitch pin hole in the receiver would only be recessed under the vehicle by 2 inches, which means you'd have plenty of clearance for any Thule hitch mounted bike rack. I've linked you to an install video that you might find helpful.

But this hitch does require drilling for installation. There aren't any no-drill options. I have included a link to the instructions so you can see how the hitch installs. There is no welding required. If you decide to go with this hitch and will be doing some towing the recommended ball mount is # C45030.

The 1500HD still has the same frame as the 1500LD just different suspension/axle components and a few other odds and ends that would not affect the fit of a trailer hitch and make it essentially the 2500LD. So you can install Curt Class IV trailer hitch # C14332 on your truck! The recommended ball mount is # C45341 and it has a 3 inch rise or 4 inch drop. If the ball mount does not have the...
