  • Is there a Height Adjustable Trailer Coupler for a 2 Inch Ball
  • We have numerous adjustable ball mounts, see link, but as far as adjustable couplers you would want to look at channel mount designs such as # PSA200S0303 which you could use with channel # C45910. I have linked videos on both of these parts for you.

  • Availability of Coupler Lock With a 5/16 inch Pin Diameter
  • A pin with a 1/4 inch diameter, like part # e98886, is standard for coupler locks. Unfortunately there are none that are 1/16 of an inch larger in diameter. If instead you meant that you needed one with a span of 5/8 of an inch then you will want to go with the Master Lock Adjustable Trailer Coupler Lock # 2847DAT which has a 5/8 inch adjustment setting. If you meant that the pin diameter needed to be 5/8 inches then you are looking for part # e98880.

  • How to Choose a Ball Mount to Correct for Different Hitch and Trailer Heights
  • When the trailer hitch on the vehicle and the coupler on the trailer have different heights you can use a ball mount with the required amount of rise or drop to allow the hitched trailer to remain level. It is important to keep the trailer's frame level when towing for better handling. Since your trailer's coupler is about 4-1/2-inches taller than your hitch receiver you will want to select a ball mount that has about 4-inches of RISE, to bring the hitch ball up to the height of the trailer...

  • Which Adjustable Ball Mount for Truck With 6 Inch Lift
  • To choose the correct ball mount for your needs, you'll need to determine the height difference between the hitch on your truck and the level coupler height of the trailer. I'll link you to a help article that explains how to do this. In a nutshell, you measure from the ground up to the top inside of the receiver tube, then from the ground up to the bottom of the trailer coupler. Subtract the two to get your height difference. Given the tire size and the lift, the truck will be taller...

  • Rise or Drop of Ball Mount Needed for 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan
  • There is no specific 'best' rise or length of ball mount for a given vehicle. Since the hitch and coupler height of every vehicle and every trailer is different, you'll need to take some measurements. To determine the rise/drop of ball mount needed, you'd want to measure the distance from the inside top of the hitch receiver tube to the ground. Then with the trailer level, measure the distance from the underside of the trailer coupler to the ground. The difference between the measurements...

  • Parts Needed to Equip 2019 Lexus RX350 for Towing Rental Trailer
  • For a trailer hitch, the Curt # C13272 Class III hitch would be my recommendation. I prefer the finish Curt uses on their trailer hitches. For a trailer wiring harness, I'd go with the Curt # C56217. For a ball mount, use # C45010 and # 63845 for a trailer ball. Rental trailers will use an adjustable coupler, so it'll work fine with the 2 inch trailer ball I recommended. If the trailer is large enough to require brakes (above 1500 lbs, I believe) the trailer will have a surge coupler,...
