Availability of Adjustable Ball Mount with 1-7/8 Inch and 2 Inch Hitch Ball
Question:
I DO NOT NEED THE 2 5/16 BALL. CAN I CUT IT OFF? HOW HARD WOULD IT BE FOR ME TO BUY A 2inch X 17/8BALL?

I do not recommend cutting off the 2-5/16 inch ball portion from the dual ball unit included with the Weigh Safe 180 Ball Mount # LTB6-2. Modifying the ball in this manner would void the manufacturer's warranty and may negatively affect its integrity (not to mention it would be pretty difficult to do).
While there isn't a two-ball mount kit available with the ball sizes you're looking for, you can use part # TB03, along with # TB01 and DB6-2 to custom make your own. This will give you the desired 2 inch and 1-7/8 inch hitch ball and the same 6 inch drop or 7 inch rise as the unit you were looking at. The ball mount has an 8,000 pound towing weight capacity when using the 2 inch ball and a 7,500 pound limit when using the smaller 1-7/8 inch ball. Its aircraft-grade billet aluminum construction allows for an extremely durable and rust free product and it's made right here in the USA.
I have attached a short video demonstration that you can check out as well.
