How to Pick Out Ball Mount for 2017 Honda Ridgeline to Trailer Level
Question:
Does this product, part # 989900, fit my 2017 Honda Ridgeline? Or is there another ball mount kit that you recommend?

The etrailer.com Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches # 989900 is designed to fit 2 inch trailer hitches which is what your 2017 Honda Ridgeline would have so yes this kit would work well. It comes with a couple different ball mounts which cover a few different rise/drops but the only way to know the best ball mount for a vehicle is to base it off of what would allow a trailer to be towed level. And since trailers come in various heights it's hard to recommend a ball mount first without knowing the trailer height.
We have adjustable ball mounts like the Flash E Series part # FA42-00-2600 which can do a drop of up to 6 inches which would most likely cover all your needs. I attached a help article on how to pick out the correct ball mount rise/drop for you to check out as well.
