14k Capacity Ball Mount Options
Question:
I have a new 14,000 GVW trailer. I need to know what type ball carrier I need to tow this properly. I know I need a 25/16 ball for the hitch, but is there a different type of ball for this weight rating ? Do you carry these items?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The ball mount part # AMSC4HD has a 14k capacity and is designed to fit a 2 inch hitch. This ball mount has a 2-3/4" Rise/ 4" Drop.
For a hitch ball you would want the part # 63836 as it has a 14k capacity as well and is a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball.
Or for an adjustable ball mount that can do various rises/drops you would want the part # AM3298.
I attached a help article on how to pick out the correct rise/drop ball mount as well.
