Corrosion-resistant ball mount is 9-3/8" long and fits 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" trailer hitch receivers.

I needed to tow a trailer with a 2" ball. My original ball mount has a 1 7/8" ball installed. I had previously tried to change a ball on a hitch and destroyed the nut and damaged the underside of the ball mount. The lock washer had done a great job in keeping the nut from coming off. I dreaded trying to remove my 1 7/8" ball to install a new one that I would only use once.
I decided to buy a new ball mount and mount the new 2" ball.
This ball mount is so inexpensive that I realized I could have both ball sizes permanently mounted for use in either ball size.

Still glad I purchased a new mount instead of trying to change ball sizes.



by:

I wasn't sure what type of ball mount I needed for my new Mazda CX-9, so I had to call a representative. The first time I called, the very knowledgeable gentlemen told me exactly how to measure my SUV to figure out the drop I needed. I called back the next day and talked to a lady who helped me figure out exactly what I needed.

This is my second purchase from etrailer. The first was a hitch for my old Honda Odyssey, which was also a great experience. The employees are so helpful, the video tutorials on the web site are fantastic and the prices are great. etrailer.com is the first place I go to look for trailer and towing supplies!

The ball mount and ball that I bought last year has worked out well, and is still in great shape. But Ive come to expect that etrailer.com will sell me a quality product. Thats just what they do!



by:

I needed a ball mount that would keep the tongue lock away from the spare tire on my Jeep.
This mount gave me just enough clearance so the tire cover clears.
Handled a small trailer with 1500 # of rock / concrete easily.

Great addition for the trailer.

Great service, fast shipping.

Thanks

Yes, I still like it



by:

Holds the ball very well and fits into the receiver socket nicely.



by:

Customer service is great, returns are trouble free and fast. The hitch is very solid, and came with all hardware needed to install. I had to return a defective wire harness. Replacement worked fine. I put this on my 04 Chrysler 300M, a car that really wasn't built for towing, and the hitch works great !!

I got an excellent product at a fair price, from a company that stands behind what they sell.

I'm glad I made my purchase with etrailer.com.



by:

Online ordering was a breeze and the item shipped within a day or two of ordering. etrailers let me know via e-mail when the order was filled and provided a tracking number.

The drawbar was well packaged and quality is perfect....good welds, solid paint to prevent corrosion and the holes for the pin and ball are perfectly sized...no slop and not too tight. I would purchase again from etrailer



by:

A good product! This is the second hitch I have installed using etrailer and it went as well as the first. Not being a super skilled Tech it took longer than expected, but for me it was a project that needed to be done, and I enjoy a good project when it comes together, no matter if it took a little longer due to an average person's tool inventory and simple jack stands and floor jacks. The instruction videos are the best I have seen as of yet. If you enjoy working with your hands, I recommend etrailer products!



by:

This, and the trailer hitch I purchased earlier are good, solid products. There was a bit of very hard paint preventing the hitch key from going through the hole, mut a half minute with a round file cleaned it out. The paint is TOUGH so I guess that will be good for long wear.

The tongue had blown through the end of the shipping package, but there was no damage.

The whole experience with etrailers.com was excellent, especially with the video instructions.



by:

Excellent quality and fits the car (distance from fender to trailer)
I would recommend.

It works perfect for the Volvo S60 when towing a small camper tenttrailer.

Everything is still working great. Thanks.

I have been impressed with you guys so far. Your prices are good and to have what I need. I went on {a different website}, but I like to deal with people, and talk to them when its needed, {that other website} is a selling machine, they are good with returns, but they really don't know their products, and rely on reviews to give you answers. Anyway, I will be calling you guys very soon to buy a wiring harness, and I,d like to pick one of your technicians brain for the right harness. Thanks Again for being out there



by:

I really like this ball mount for my Ford Fusion.
This is a solid piece of steel.
I did turn it upside down to get the trailer tongue to look ok.

I bought this with the Curt C12091 hitch for the Ford Fusion.



by:

Though etrailer recommended the 7 1/4" length for the Focus ST models, measuring the length required is more than 7 1/4. The 9 3/8" length is a perfect match for the bumper profile.



by:

Works great

Carol C
Thank you so much for your response
and follow up to my recent order. I didn't expect to receive my Curt Hitch and drawbar order as quickly is as did. Thank you again for your attention and promptness in processing my order. It's been a pleasure to deal with your company and I would urge people to do business with you.



by:

I'm using this to haul small trailer with Chevrolet Equinox. Hitch on this SUV is rated at 3500 lbs. max. Product is well made.



by:

It had a few burs that had to be smoothed off to fit in the receiver and for the pin to go through but other than that it should be good to go for the kayak trailer.



by:

The hitch was exactly what I needed and works great for the receiver on the car. Shipment was quick and the quality and price were great.



by:

Product and services were excellent. The eTrailer website is clear and concise, and offer DIY videos for all products. Major plus !!

etrailer service technicians are very professional and follow up on calls and deliveries. Prices are very competitive, with shipping costs included.

I've recommended to friends who were also very satisfied.

Thanks



by:

The Class II Drawbar is working great with our 2016 Chev. Equinox. Thanks.



by:

Very well made ball mount. Nice, clean welds. Good looking powder coating. Made in the USA and reasonably priced. What is there not to like about Curt products?



by:

A nice little receiver adapter that is strong. Good quality, nothing to worry about here.



by:

The hitch package I installed on my 05 Camry is holding up great and pulls my bass tracker like a charm!



by:

Received everything I ordered in just 2 days. Second time I used etrailer.com and would have no problem recommending them or using them again.



by:

Product arrived perfectly packed and a day early! Fit exactly as described. I was able to install in the perscribed time.

I am very pleased with the company and the product!!

See what our Experts say about this CURT Trailer Hitch Ball Mount

  • Can Curt Class II Drawbar # C45016 be Used in the Rise Position
    Curt Class II Drawbar # C45016 can be used in the rise position so that the ball is higher up. It will have a rise of 2-5/8 inches measured from the top of the receiver opening to the top of the platform the ball sits on.

  • Distance from the Center of the Pin Hole to the Ball Mount Platform on the Curt Draw Bar # C45016
    I went out into our warehouse and measured the distance from the center of the hitch pin to the start of the ball mount platform on the Curt Draw Bar part # C45016 and found it to be 7-1/4 inches so as long as I understood you correctly this ball mount would work well for you.

  • Availability of Longer Ball Mount with 3/4 inch Ball Hole Diameter and Around 2 inches Rise
    The closest ball mount we have to the dimensions you mentioned is the part # C45016 which has a 2-5/8 inch rise, a 3/4 inch diameter ball hole, and measures 9-3/8 inches from the hitch pin hole to the ball hole.

  • Recommended Ball Mount for a 2006 Toyota Sienna Ball With a Class II Trailer Hitch
    The recommended ball mount for your 2006 Toyota Sienna would have a 2-5/8 inch rise, like Curt ball mount # C45016. This would put the hitch ball at the most common trailer height, but to ensure it will work with your particular setup, I would recommend taking a couple simple measurements. First, measure from the ground to the top of your class II hitch opening. Then, with your trailer level, measure from the ground to the flat bottom of the trailer coupler. The difference between these...

  • Correct Draw Bar for Curt Class I Receiver C45025 on 2012 VW Golf TDI
    The draw bar included with the hitch is part # C45016, which has a 2-5/8 inch rise, or 3-1/4 inch drop. Ideally, you want to tow the trailer so that it is as level as possible, but being within an inch and a half either way is close enough for government work. Keep in mind that hitch is designed to work best with a draw bar with the same drop as the C45016, and using a draw bar with a different rise or drop is not recommended. I will link you to our FAQ article that shows how to correctly...

  • Ball Mount Recommendation with More Rise than Curt # C45016
    The Curt ball mount part # C45016 has a rise of 2-5/8 inches so for a ball mount with more rise you'd want the # C45522 if you were looking for 3-7/8 inches of rise instead. This also fit a Class II hitch. You would want to check out the FAQ article I attached below on picking out the correct rise/drop ball mount as well.

  • Ball Mount For My Class 2 1-1/4 Inch Hitch
    The Curt Class II Drawbar # C45016 will move the hitch ball away from your plastic bumper. Using this drawbar will move the hitch out 9-3/8 inches which is center of hitch pin hole to center of hitch pin hole. The ball mount has a sturdy steel construction which has a black gloss powder coat finish. The ball mount has a gross towing weight up to 3,500 pounds and a tongue weight up to 350 pounds. I attached a review video link below.

  • Can a Class II Ball Mount be Used with a Class I Trailer Hitch on a 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT
    With a Class I trailer hitch on your 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse, you should only use the ball mount that is recommended for use with the trailer hitch. Another problem is that the ball mount that you have referenced is a Class II accessory. Class II items are designed so that they will not fit in a Class I trailer hitch. You could use Sportframe Drawbar, # 3592, which will give you a 2-1/8 inch rise or # C45016, which will give you a 2-5/8 inch rise.

  • What is the Recommended Ball Mount for a 2005 Toyota Sienna with a 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch
    For a Class I or II trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch, you must use the ball mount that is recommended by the trailer hitch manufacturer. The reason is that the hitch has been tested with a specific ball mount and it is deemed to be the safest and best option for that vehicle and hitch combination. The only 1-1/4 inch hitch we carry for your 2005 Toyota Sienna is # C12065. The correct ball mount for this hitch is # C45016, and it must be used in the rise position only. It has...

  • Ball Mount with 2 Inch Rise Longer than 7 Inches to Tow Trailer Level with 2001 Subaru Forester
    It sounds like there are a couple of things going on here. First, you need a ball mount with a 2 inch rise. But then it also sounds like you need a ball mount that is longer than 7 inches. The other issue is that on Class I and II hitches you are supposed to use the ball mount recommended by the hitch manufacturer or it could void the hitch warranty. Ball mount # 3592 is going to be the best bet for the height and length requirements. It has a 2-1/8 inch rise and measures 9-3/4 inches...

  • What is Required to Tow Lets Go Aero LittleGiant With 2017 Ford Fusion?
    It is not necessary to have a 2" receiver to tow the Let's Go Aero LittleGiant TLK864; this utility trailer has a coupler which attaches to a 2" hitch ball. That size hitch ball is what you'd need, along with a ball mount. The correct ball mount for a 1-1/4" hitch on your 2017 Fusion Sport would be Curt Class II Drawbar # C45016. This drawbar has a 3/4" hitch ball hole diameter, and the 2" hitch ball that would fit is the Curt # A-82. If you have this, along with a wiring harness such...

  • Trailer Hitch Fit for 2015 Ford Fusion Energi
    Officially we have to recommend that you always stay with the recommendation of the manufacturer on towing as they are who the warranty of the vehicle is with and they are who would have tested the vehicle for towing. That being said we realize that a lot of people ignore their owners manual and tow with vehicles that aren't designed for it and allegedly do not have any problems. So our hitch manufacturers make hitches for these vehicles as there is a demand for them but it's a situation...

    If you have a 2-inch trailer hitch on your 2006 Jeep Liberty you can use an extra long ball mount like part #EA40. This ball mount measures 14-5/8 inches long and has a 3 inch rise or 4-inch drop. This will work with your Curt 3-Bike Clamp-on Rack, part # C18013 If you have a 1-1/4 inch receiver on your Jeep, the longest ball mount we offer is part # C45016. It is 9-3/8 inches long.

If you decide to tow a small motorcycle trailer, I recommend looking at the Curt Class I Receiver Hitch # C11190. This trailer hitch is confirmed to fit your vehicle and will provide a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. I have included the installation details for you to...

It has a 5 inch rise and measures 11-5/8 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball hole. The other choices I have for a 1-1/4 inch ball mount with a 5 inch rise is the Curt Class II 1-1/4 Inch Ball Mount, part # C45014 which is 9-5/8 inches long and the Draw-Tite Class II 1-1/4 Inch Ball Mount, part # 36065 which is 10 inches long.

    The Curt hitch # C11290 that you referenced is rated for towing up to 2,000 lbs. I looked up your 2003 Honda Accord's towing capacity and it looks to be 1,000 lbs. Since you are only as strong as the weakest component in your towing setup you'd have a 1,000 lb overall towing capacity that you'd need to keep your trailer under. For trailer wiring you'd then want the T-one kit part # 118302 for a 4-way. For a ball mount you'd then want the # C45016 and for a hitch ball # A-80.

    Hidden Hitch has does not have any trailer hitches for the 2015 Volkswagen GTI which is why you do not see it listed. We could test fit a hitch but we would need a willing volunteer in the Wentzville, Missouri area. Since Golf and GTI are separate models that is why there are other options for it. The Hidden Hitch models for the 2014 Golf are different than the ones listed for the 2014 GTI so Hidden Hitch will likely produce an all new hitch for the 2015 GTI. Basically the bottom line...

    Since you have a factory hitch on your 2003 VW Golf TDI it wouldn't be worth upgrading to a new hitch like the Curt # C11066 as it wouldn't gain you any additional capacity. You would need trailer wiring too if you didn't have that already like with the part # HM48925. For a ball mount you would then want the part # C45016 with the hitch ball # 19258.

    Yes, the opening of the Curt trailer hitch receiver # C11000, which you have referenced, will measure 1-1/4" x 1-1/4". Please consult the vehicle owner's manual first if you plan on doing any towing. The correct ball mount for use with this hitch and vehicle is # C45016. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258.

    Long story short you would need a trailer to transport a heavy duty power scooter with a 2015 Ford Fusion. The highest rated hitch we offer for your vehicle is the Curt part # C12091 that has a 350 lb tongue weight rating which doesn't sound like it would be enough when you consider the weight of the carrier as well. This hitch would work well to tow a light trailer with though. For a ball mount you would want the part # C45016, hitch ball # 19256 for 1-7/8 inch and part # 19258 for 2...
