Available Ball Mount Adapters for Friction-Style Sway Control Devices
Question:
I am looking for a simple solution to a ball mount. Must be 2 1/2 inch shank. I want some height adjustability and also accommodation for a friction sway bar ball. Thanks

We do offer many fixed and adjustable 2-1/2-inch ball mounts, shown on the linked page, including items like Fastway adjustable model # FA42-00-2625.
Although we do offer friction sway control adapters # RP26005 for 1-1/4-inch Class II hitches and # RP26003 for 2-inch Class III hitches, there is no comparable part for 2-1/2-inch shanks. This is mainly because the effectiveness of basic friction sway units like # 83660 is limited to lighter trailers than those typically towed with a 2-1/2-inch hitch.
