Video Transcript for Curt Stainless Steel 2 Inch Hitch Ball Review A-82
Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Curt Trailer Ball. When it comes to trailer balls you wanna just make sure that it's the right size for your coupler. So this one's gonna be for a 2" coupler. So you just wanna make sure and check that, and it is gonna have a 3,500 pound capacity. So we also wanna make sure it's gonna be hefty enough for whatever we plan on hauling. And of course we need to pair it up with a correct ball mount.
So when you're looking at ball mounts, one, we wanna make sure that the platform's gonna be anywhere from 3/8" to an 1 1/4" thick because the shank is about 2 1/8" long. So it comes with the nut and the lock washer. So you wanna make sure it can go all the way through. And then of course, with the hole on the inside of our ball mount, we wanna make sure it has a diameter of 3/4". Anything bigger than that, of course it won't fit and anything smaller, we're gonna have a lot of play there, and that's not something that you want with your towing setup.
So just make sure all that kinda lines up. It's made of a steel construction, so it should not rust away over time, but you never know. There's just a lot of friction that happens, almost every single trailer ball that I've seen has a little bit wear after a couple of years of use. So don't expect this not to rust away. If you really wanted to upgrade from this trailer ball, you can get one that's machined out of straight stainless steel, but we do have some other ones that are going to resist against rust and corrosion completely.
That's probably the only thing you could do to upgrade. When it comes to trailer balls there's not really a whole lot to 'em. You just wanna make sure you pair it up with the right ball mount. You wanna make sure it is gonna be rated the same as the ball mount. And of course, it's gonna be rated for whatever you are hauling.
That's pretty much all you really need to know to pick out the right system to haul whatever you're hauling. And that's pretty much it for our look at the Curt 2" Trailer Ball..

This 2" hitch ball is made of quality stainless steel and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I towed a RangeRunner Runaway camper 1200 miles from Summerfield, Florida to Rochester, New York and the hitch ball was great!
Thank you etrailer!!

Etrailer is my go to store for trailer parts. The curts 2” hitch ball is very high quality machined stainless steel. If your a person that doesn’t like rusty hitch balls than this is a product you will definitely like.
by: James M08/11/2017
Love the large product selection at etrailer. Bought a (stainless steel) 2" ball, and (5-1/2 inch rise) drawbar for my 1-1/4" hitch. That high rise drawbar is not commonly carried in stock. Both items were in stock at etrailer. Standard delivery was fast, and tracking number was provided. Both items work great on initial checkout. Quality of the products are good, and I don't expect any problems with them in the future.
by: John H08/31/2017
When installing the ball, the instructions call for a torque of 140 pounds, so you'll need a torque wrench. This is a good, solid product.
by: Peter07/09/2019
Needed a 1 1/4” hitch for my new Mazda. Only place that had that size was etrailer. Also got a 2” ball and Clevis pin to attach hitch. Everything arrived in perfect shape . Now I can haul my RAZR to cabin. etrailer always come through!.
by: Andrew01/03/2018
I have used this product allot since getting it a year ago. I store it in the trunk of my car next to the spare tire when not in use. It has no corrosion at all and works great with several trailers.
by: Andrew W.01/28/2011
All three items (hitch ball, extra long ball mount and hitch receiver lock came very quickly, packaged very well and are of high quality and are reasonably priced. The extra long ball mount has solved my problem of having to backup the car into the water. I have looked for it locally to no avail but have found it on etrailer.com.
In short I am very happy with the product and the service.
by: Vic P.10/01/2017

How could this product be anything less than stellar? It fits my class I hitch mount, and it allows me to tow my light duty trailer without me ever having to even think about it becoming a rusty eyesore on my car.
by: Alexandra06/10/2019
The drawbar and hitch ball were exactly as described on the website and delivered very promptly. I value the wide selection of products offered by etrailer.com. Saves me lots of time when shopping for what I need.

THANKS FOR GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE - I KNEW CALLING ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON WASN'T THE BEST IDEA BUT YOU ALL WERE ABLE TO GET IT SHIPPED OUT BEFORE THE CLOSE OF THE WORK DAY WHICH WOULD HAVE PUT SHIPPING OVER UNTIL MONDAY - THANKS FOR THAT. I'VE INSTALLED THE HITCH BALL BUT HAVEN'T USED IT YET. GREAT LOOKING PRODUCT. A REAL PLEASURE WORKING WITH YOU.
by: David10/09/2017
Price was right, shipped and received with no issues and the product is doing what it was intended to do. What impresses me about etrailer is all the extra information provided on your web site in reference about the product with helpful insight.

Excellent web site, providing all the details I needed for my 1.25" hitch. Could not find the information I needed on other web sites, so placed my order at eTrailer. Couldn't be happier.
by: David R03/03/2017
Very well made, just like the Curt hitch and receiver I got from eTrailer.
by: Bob S 10/09/2016
With the help of my salesperson Lisa, I was able to find the correct hitch for my set up and she had to help me size it up, and it worked out perfectly. After placing the order I was notified when it shipped, and then a delivery date, best of all, it was less then a week.
great job Lisa, and e trailer.

- Ball Mount Recommendation for 2020 Honda HR-V with Curt Class I HitchBased on your dimensions you do need a 1 inch rise. Now that said Class I hitches you have to use only the recommended ball mount from the manufacturer would be the part # C45521. Due to the lower capacity of the Class I hitches using a longer or larger ball mount might cause excessive strain on the hitch. For a hitch ball you'd want the # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or # A-80 for 1-7/8 inch hitch ball.
view full answer... - Is Drilling Required to Install Curt Class II Trailer Hitch 12142 on a 2017 Jeep Renegade SportFor Curt trailer hitch # C12142 the only drilling you may need to do will be to enlarge access holes that are already on the frame of your 2017 Jeep Renegade Sport. But you could also use a file or rotary toll to enlarge those holes if needed. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view. If you plan on doing some towing the recommended ball mount is # C45521. For a 1-7/8 inch ball you can use # A-80. For a 2 inch ball use # A-82. And for trailer wiring you can...

The Draw-Tite part #24857 hasn't been confirmed as a fit for the 328xi so I can't safely guarantee that it would fit. If you are sure that the vehicles are the same there is a chance it could fit but that's not something we can recommend. Looking at the two hitches the mounting bracket that attaches to the vehicle closest to the front of it is different between the two hitches so...

But the Curt option, # C12038, has a high enough tongue weight capacity at 350 pounds. You would just need a carrier that fits a Class II hitch. And you will also want to check the vehicle owners manual for the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle. Whatever is lower, the hitch or the vehicle, is the capacity you need to go by.

In order to complete your towing setup, you'll need a trailer wiring harness like # 119178KIT, a ball mount like part # C45022 and a # PC2 hitch pin and a 1-7/8 hitch ball like # A-80 or a 2 inch ball like # A-82

This hitch has a gross towing weight of 2,000 pounds. However, this doesn't mean the car will be able to tow 2,000 pounds. You will be limited by the lowest...

The tongue weight is 10-15% of the overall weight of the trailer and jet ski. It looks like you may have a 2007 Honda CR-V. I recommend Curt Class III trailer hitch receiver part # 13555 which is much more suitable for towing a small trailer because it has a 350 lb tongue weight rating. This option is much safer to use to tow the jet ski this...

I prefer it due to its construction and utilizing the extra mounting hole over the others. For wiring you will want the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56149. Its simple plug and play design makes it a simple and clean installation. The Curt Class II Drawbar # C45521 will be utilized in the rise orientation with either a 2" Ball # A-82 or 1-7/8" Ball # A-80. Finally I recommend using...

- How Come Only 1-1/4 inch Hitch Size is Available for 2018 Hyundai Kona2 inch trailer hitches are typically only made for vehicles with higher towing capacities like trucks and SUVs. Since your 2018 Hyundai Kona is a lighter duty vehicle there are only 1-1/4 inch hitches made for it like the Curt # C11529 that you referenced. Then for trailer wiring we have the zero-splice kit # 119250KIT as a fit that I recommend that easier to install and also very reliable. For a ball mount you'd then want the part # C45521 and for hitch balls # A-82 for a 2 inch ball...

There is no drilling required but you will need to do some underbody trimming and you will need to temporarily lower the exhaust and remove your rear bumper for the installation. If you are planning on towing I recommend using the Curt Class II Drawbar, part # C45521, along with the Curt Hitch Ball, part # A-82, but you will want to do some measuring first to make sure that it is the proper...

If you'll be towing with the hitch, you'll need a trailer wiring harness # 119178KIT, a ball mount # C45521, and a # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch trailer ball or # A-82 for a 2 inch ball.

It seems likely you wanted that hitch because it is a 2' receiver, but unfortunately there aren't any hitches with a 2" receiver that fit your 2004 XC70, so you'll need one with a 1-1/4" receiver, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12318.

It would do a great job for towing a small trailer. The fourth hole is behind the heat shield that's under the vehicle. If you check out the install instructions link I attached you'll see more on that. For trailer wiring you'd want the part # 56061 which is a confirmed fit. For a ball mount you then would want the part # C45521. And then part # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
