How to Find the Correct Ball Mount for 2014 Land Rover
Question:
Hi, I am looking for a trailer hitch ball mount and 2 inch ball for a 2014 Land Rover Range Rover HSE LUX. Could you point me to the right one? the manual says max distance from the securing pin to the center of ball should be 11. Max height 3.

I can tell you exactly how to find the correct ball mount for your 2014 Range Rover. What you'll want to do is make sure your Land Rover and trailer are each parked on level ground. Then measure from the ground to the top of the hitch receiver. Also measure from the ground to the bottom of your trailer's coupler.
If the hitch height is greater, you need a ball mount with drop. If the coupler height is greater, you'll need a ball mount with rise. You will also also want a draw bar with the right capacity, and a hitch ball that will fit.
For example, if your hitch was 6 inches higher than your coupler, Curt Ball Mount # C45336 has a 10,000 lb capacity, offers 6-1/8" of drop, is 9-3/8" from hitch pin hole to center of ball hole, and would require a 2" hitch ball that fits a 1-1/4" hitch ball diameter such as # A-90.
If your coupler happened to be 3" higher, you could use the Draw-Tite # 2753, which has a 7,500 lb capacity, offers 2-3/4" of rise, is 9" long and requires a hitch ball that fits a 1" diameter such as # 63845. For either of these ball mounts, pin and clip # PC3 would work great.
I've attached links to video reviews of these products for you to take a look at and would be happy to help find you the exact draw bar you need once you do take the measurements.
