To provide a 2 inch hitch ball for your Trailer Valet XL # TVXL25 that came with a 2-5/16 inch ball, you can use the 2 Inch Hitch Ball for Trailer Valet XL Trailer Dolly # TVHB2. This part number will provide you with a new 2 inch diameter ball for your dolly.
The bases for the 2 inch ball and 2-5/16 inch ball are the same, so you can swap out one diameter ball for the other. My contact at Trailer Valet says it will just take a good wrench to remove the 2-5/16 inch ball and install the... view full answer...

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... view full answer...
For a ball mount, or drawbar, rated at 10,000 pounds that fits in a 2 inch hitch receiver, I recommend the Brophy Ball Mount 3/4 Inch Rise or 2 Inch Drop, 13-1/4 Inches Long # BM20. This ball mount has a 2 inch drop or 3/4 inch rise. When used with a standard hitch ball, the small drop will help you tow your boat trailer level. This ball mount uses a hitch ball with a 1 inch diameter shank.

The hitch ball you need will depend on the size the trailer's coupler connects to; it will likely be a 1-7/8" ball or 2" ball. As for the ball mount, there is a simple way for you to determine if you need drop or rise with a couple measurements. First, make sure both your vehicle and trailer are parked on level ground; you'll then want to measure from the ground to the top of the inside of your hitch receiver. Next, measure from the ground to the bottom of your trailer's coupler.

When the # e26KR hitch is installed, the inside top of the receiver will sit about 1 inch below the underside of the bumper. To... view full answer...
I have a solution for you, but there's not a ball mount with exactly a 1-1/2" drop.

This kit comes with both 1-7/8" and 2" hitch balls to allow you to cover trailers with different coupler sizes, plus a hitch pin, clip and storage bag. view full answer...
Selecting the proper hitch ball has more to do with the trailer coupler and gross weight of the trailer than the trailer hitch installed on your vehicle. The coupler ball size will be stamped into the coupler somewhere, usually on the top. With the 3593 draw bar a short shank ball with a 3/4 inch diameter shank is recommended. We have an article detailing ball selection and information for you to review (see link).
If your trailer has a 2 inch coupler and is no heavier than 3,500 pounds... view full answer...
