Question:
Hey there! What ball hitch should I get for the Curt Class III Ball Mount with 2inch Ball - 2inch Drop that i just ordered? I am mourning on a 07 Honda Element. Ill be towing smaller work trailers such as catering supplies, hot dog cart etc.

The key when picking out a ball mount is to go with one that allows the trailer to be towed level. Without knowing the height of the coupler on your trailers I can't know what would work best, but I do have a solution that will work.
The part # BWTS10038B is an adjustable ball mount that has two ball sizes. 2 inch hitch ball and a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball which would be what you'd most likely find on a smaller trailer.
If you already have the Curt Ball mount, you will need to determine the ball hole diameter. For instance, if you had the Curt ball mount # C45230, it has a 1" ball hole diameter. You would then need a hitch ball that has a 1 inch diameter like the 2" Brophy ball # SC23-C.
