The Draw-Tite Ball Mount Adjustable with Sway-Control Tab # 7390 is designed to only be adjusted with the bolts and nuts included. This is more similar in design to a weight distribution system head than a traditional adjustable ball mount due to the sway control option. The shank can use the standard pin and clip # PC3 at the hitch pin hole if desired or you can use a locking hitch pin like # e98880.

This system is designed for use with a friction bar sway control like # 83660.

The trick here is to get as close as possible. If you are talking about less than 2 inches or so, there is nothing to worry about. Having the trailer tongue a bit too high is preferable to it being too low. You may be a good candidate for an…
