Expert Answers about Toyota Trailer Hitch Ball


  • Does The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e99846 Come With A Ball Mount
  • Hi Renee, The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98846 is just the trailer hitch receiver and does not come with a ball mount. I typically recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches # 989900 because it covers a decent range of typical rise/drop heights and comes with both a 1-7/8" and 2" hitch ball. The best way to find the correct ball mount for your needs is to measure the trailer coupler height and compare it to height of the trailer hitch receiver. If you have the trailer...

  • Will Brophy Ball Mount BM20 Allow Rear Hatch to Open
  • Yes, the rear hatch on your Ford Explorer will still be able to open when using the Brophy Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # BM20. You wouldn't need sway bars due to the longer ball mount so you're set there. You'd only need a hitch ball, either 2" hitch ball # C54CR or 2-5/16" hitch ball # C40005 depending on your trailer coupler. Then to secure the ball mount use pin and clip # C21504 or hitch lock # e98881.

  • Can The Clevis Adapter for B&W Tow & Stow Ball Mounts Be Used With A Trailer Hitch Ball
  • Hi Kevin, The Clevis Adapter for B&W Tow & Stow 2" Ball Mounts # BWTS35100B has a 1-1/8" diameter hole so you would need to find a hitch ball with a 1-1/8" diameter shank. This is designed to be connected to a B&W Tow & Stow 2" ball mount but it sounds like you're trying to use this in a different manner? If you have a channel mount ball mount or shank and are needing the ball side of the mount then we would need to know the brand and/or get some measurements on what you have to find...

  • Recommended 2" Stainless Ball and Anti Rattle Device for the Flash Self-Locking Aluminum Ball Mount
  • The Brophy 2" Stainless Steel Hitch Ball part # SC23-C will work out great with the Flash Self-Locking Aluminum Ball Mount part # DTLBM8600. For an anti rattle for it use the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches part # RM-061 this is my go to anti rattle because it is very effective at keeping things secure. I've linked a video on it for you to check out.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2021 Audi Q5
  • We would be happy to install a trailer hitch on your 2021 Audi Q5 here in Wentzville. If you're looking for a recommendation, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e94CR is what I would choose. All of the available hitches have a similar design and capacity. The etrailer hitch stands out because of the matte black powder coat finish. This gives it an OEM look and will help hide those inevitable dings and scratches. If you plan on towing, you will also need wiring and a ball mount. The...

  • Ball Mount Compatible With An Older Putnam Hitch That Uses A 3/4 Inch Hitch Pin
  • I took a look at what we have, and I was able to find the: -Gen-Y 2-Ball Mount for 2-1/2" Hitch Receivers # 325-GH-064. This ball mount will use the larger 3/4" hitch pin # 58388 that you mentioned you have, however this ball mount is designed to fit into 3" x 3" trailer hitch receivers. If your receiver opening is smaller, you can use the Curt Hitch Receiver Reducer Sleeves # C45408. This reducer sleeve will allow you to adapt the ball mount to your 2-1/2" or 2" receiver opening.

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System for a 7,400 lbs Trailer and a 3,000 lbs Trailer
  • With that wide of a range of tongue weight and the lift of your F-150, I recommend the Reese Weight Distribution w/out Shank item # RP66021. This system works with trailer's weighing up to 8,000 lbs and tongue weights within the range of 400 lbs - 800 lbs. This might be a little stiff with your boat trailer but any lower on the bottom end will put you below the effective range for your camper. For a shank that will work with your truck's 6" lift you will need the 9" Drop Equal-i-zer Weight...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution Hitch For Travel Trailer With 550 lb Tongue Weight
  • For a weight distribution hitch that will also provide excellent sway control, the best option for an approximately 550 lb total tongue weight is from Reese: - Strait-Line Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control # RP66083 The Strait-Line # RP66083 gives you the best of everything - a level trailer as well as four points of sway control that will effectively stop your trailer from swaying before it starts, as opposed to after it starts swaying like a lot of friction sway control. You will...

  • Recommended Weight Distribution System For A V-Nose Trailer
  • The brackets welded to the frame appear to be standard hangers for a chain-style weight distribution hitch. Since the brackets are 30" back from the ball, I recommend using the Reese Weight Distribution System # RP67509. This requires the brackets to be placed exactly 30" back from the ball so it will match up nicely. Instead of using the brackets included with the hitch, you will simply slip the chain link into the welded bracket. The Reese Weight Distribution System # RP67509 is intended...

  • Recommended Solution for Ball Mount with Multiple Hitch Balls and 7" Drop That Won't Drag
  • The 2" hitch ball on the B&W Tow and Stow # BWTS10049B is on the left hand side and not on the top, so as you've noted it might potentially drag the 2-5/16" ball when towing in that orientation. With that said, typically you'll have at least 12" of coupler height to tow level and the hitch ball will only extend down about 3-1/2", so you would still have at least 8-1/2" of clearance from the ground which in most cases should leave you safe. This would be the best solution we have available...

  • Does Curt Trailer Hitch Install Behind Rear Bumper Hitch Cover on 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L
  • Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C96NR installs behind the rear bumper and hitch cover on your 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. When the hitch bumper cover is in place the hitch will be completely hidden. You will have to remove the panel to use the hitch. If you plan on doing some towing you will also need wiring. I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK39VR. This will plug into existing wiring so no cutting or splicing is required. Once installed you will have a 4-way...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for Towing With 2022 Toyota Sienna
  • For a hitch that fits your 2022 Toyota Sienna I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C22UR. This is a custom fit hitch with a 2" receiver and maximum gross trailer weight of 3,500 lbs so it matches the towing capacity of your vehicle. It features a gloss black powder coat finish and comes with a limited lifetime warranty. Since you plan on towing you will also need wiring and a ball mount. I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK69FR since it is the most reliable....

  • Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control For 3 Inch Hitch & 10,500 lb Trailer
  • Hi Steve, I totally understand, as those Pro Pride hitches are great but reaaaaaaaal expensive. So we can get you weight distribution, but due to the size your hitch and weight of your trailer, there will be a cost because there are few options and it's going to take multiple parts. What you'll need to do is get a weight distribution hitch and change out its shank, so let's go ahead and start with the weight distribution that is rated correctly for your 10,500 lb trailer: - Blue Ox SwayPro...

  • Recommended Ball Mount for a EcoHitch Mounted Behind the License Plate
  • From the hitch pin hole to the edge of the license plate is 8" with the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch item # 306-X7186 installed on your 2015 Chevy Volt. With this in mind, I recommend the Draw-Tite Ball Mount for 2" Hitches item # 2753. It measures 9" from the hitch pin hole to where the hitch ball sits so this will give you plenty of room to clear your license plate and the back of your car. For hitch balls you will want item # 63845 for a 2" ball or item # C40002 for a 1-7/8" ball.

  • Recommended Adjustable Ball Mount for a Chevy Bolt w/ a EcoHitch Mounted Behind the License Plate
  • I like to recommend the Draw-Tite Ball Mount for 2" Hitches item # 2753 for the Chevy Volt's with the hitch behind the plate item # 306-X7338. It measures 9" from the hitch pin hole to where the hitch ball sits so this will give you plenty of room to clear your license plate and the back of your car. The MaxxTow Adjustable-Height Ball Mount item # MT70068 has an extended hitch pin hole to clear your Volt's license plate bracket. It has a 7-1/2" drop or a 6-1/4" rise so lots of adjustability...

  • Can I Pull a Trailer w/ a 2" Coupler w/ the Flint Hill Goods Trailer Dolly?
  • Yes, it will! The Flint Hill Goods Trailer Dolly item # FHG24ZR will work just fine with your 2" coupler even though it has a 1-7/8" hitch ball. Due to how slow you would be moving and how light dollies are it's not important for the latch of the coupler to secure to it. You could swap out the hitch ball but you really don't need to.
