Note: To avoid the Tow & Stow hitting steep driveways or curbs, we recommend at least 11" of clearance between the ground and the lowest point of the drop hitch, as seen above.
The B&W Tow & Stow adjustable ball mount lets you tow a variety of trailers with different tongue heights. Having both a 2" ball and a 2-5/16" ball allows for even more versatility, making this the ultimate go-to ball mount if you own multiple trailers.
Easily Adjusts and Stows
To switch the hitch ball, simply remove the pin holding the balls in place and rotate the entire block that the balls are mounted on until the ball you want to use is on top. Then replace the pin to secure the block in place.
Adjusting the height of the ball is just as easy. Remove the pins holding the ball mount platform in place and slide the platform up or down along the shank to the desired position. Once you have found the correct height, reinsert the pins and replace the clips.
When you're not towing, you can flip the ball mount platform around and stow it beneath your hitch so that you won't bang your shins. Just remove the pins to slide the ball platform down along the channel and up the back side so that the hitch balls face towards your vehicle. Then replace the pins.
Built-In Anti-Theft System
The Tow & Stow ball mount features a channel that runs along both sides of the shank. This channel not only allows you to slide the ball mount platform up and down to adjust the ball height, but it also prevents removal of the platform when the ball mount is installed, which will help prevent theft of your trailer.
A slot is cut into the adjustment channel near the top of the shank. To remove the ball mount platform from the shank you will need to remove the entire ball mount from your hitch. Then remove the pins that hold the platform in place. Flip the platform around to the stowed position on the rear of the shank, and then slide it up until the center pin lines up with the slot in the shank. Pull the platform out towards the rear of the shank until the pin pops out of the adjustment channel.
When the Tow & Stow is secured in your hitch receiver, you will not be able to remove the ball mount platform. This is because the slot in the shank is positioned in such a way that the collar on your hitch will block the pin on the platform from being able to leave the channel. Even if the pins holding the ball mount platform in place are removed, the platform will still be confined to this channel. So, as long as a hitch lock is used to secure the entire ball mount in your hitch receiver, and a coupler lock is used to prevent your trailer's coupler from being disengaged from the ball, your trailer will be secure.

Very nice and sturdy made Hitch. I love the streamlined design. Fast shipping

Great tow hitch. Love the way it stores away in hitch and do not have to remove it.
Be careful when moving from storing to pull position, it can easily pinch your fingers
by: Brad USMC Retired 01/20/2017
Couldn't be happier with my new hitch. Excellent quality, exactly as advertised. The video explaining the characteristics and operation of the hitch was extremely helpful and answered all my concerns. I now only need one hitch for all 5 of my trailers. This was my 2nd purchase from etrailer and I highly recommend them.
by: Mark 09/22/2021
This product is the best hitch I ever owned. It has never let me down. So versatile and easy to use. Also, I like to add the customer service from etrailer is great, friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful. I highly recommend etailer to any folks out there that are looking for the best product and company to buy from hands down.
by: Mike02/07/2018

by: Raymond06/05/2018
B&W makes a top of the line product, this is the third B&W I have owned. I wouldn’t settle for anything less. Well worth the money. Very versatile, does everything I need it to. I have two boats, the transition is effortless depending on what we are doing at the lake I hope it will be the last one I own. Thanks

- Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Other Parts to Tow a Trailer with a 2014 Audi Q5Between the Curt # C13136 and Draw-Tite # 75940 trailer hitch receivers for the 2014 Audi Q5 the Draw-Tite has more ground clearance. The Draw-Tite installs into the bumper behind a removable piece of fascia that is on the Q5. If this piece of fascia is not on your model then the fascia will need to be cut. The Curt, on the other hand, installs underneath the bumper. So the entire cross beam of the hitch receiver is visible. On the Draw-Tite all you see if the receiver opening and...

We do however have a couple of hitch receivers that fit up tightly underneath the bumper. I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13146 that tucks up nicely to the bumper and has horizontal safety chain connections so there is slightly better ground clearance and a cleaner look than the etrailer # e98840. If you will be using a hitch receiver for towing, I...

This will give you a 2 inch hitch receiver that is compatible with your Kuat Sherpa 2.0 # SH22G and many other accessories as well. For your trailer, I recommend you use the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118467 for your wiring.

Both have a similar design and look once installed. The Curt has a higher weight capacity but the Draw-Tite is still rated well above what your Sorento can tow so that shouldn't be a deciding factor for you. If I had to choose one I'd go with the Curt just because of the amount of positive reviews we've received. The Draw-Tite's reviews are just as positive but...

We do have many different ball mount options, so I have attached an article to assist.

It provides a 1-7/8" ball and a 2" ball for different trailer couplers and fits 2" receivers. It is going to provide a 5-1/2" rise so it is going to provide the adjustability you are looking for.

This will allow you to utilize your manufacturer's towing capacity rating of 2,700 lbs just as a Class II option, but this receiver will give you more options as far as accessories and will be a sturdier hitch than a Class II. It is not a necessity to use the Class III hitch over the Class II for towing a riding lawn mower or 4-wheeler, but it will be a more...

The manufacturer will give you a towing capacity as well as a tongue weight capacity in most cases. I looked up the owners manual for a 2014 Honda CRV and the manual states the maximum allowable weight of the trailer, cargo and everything in or on it must not exceed 1500 lbs. The tongue weight of the fully loaded trailer should be approximately 10%...

We do installations on all our products for customers here in Wentzville near O'Fallon. The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76128 is the best option in my opinion for your 2018 Honda CR-V. It is rated for a stronger capacity than the Curt option # C13397 and is a slightly easier install as well with no fascia trimming required.

If you're going to be towing a trailer the wiring harness to power the trailer's lights I recommend is the Tekonsha # 118741.

You can mount this wiring right next to your receiver for easy access using the brackets # 18144 and # 18140.

After 1 year I couldn’t be happier with my ball hitch. I recommend this hitch to anyone that pulls multiple trailers.
