There is not a maximum capacity for the Adjustable Drop Hitch Receiver Adapter # PH54FR.

It has a 7,000 lb towing capacity and 700 lb tongue weight capacity no matter what. We have verified this with Patriot Hitches.

Yes. You can use a drop ball mount like the #C45336 with the Patriot Hitches #PH54FR to get to your 16" drop total. 5" drop ball mounts are very uncommon, so a 6" like mentioned above and raising the receiver in the Patriot mount will…

If I am following you correctly, I think what you are looking for is a drop hitch that has a 2.5" shank for your truck and then the part that drops is a 2" receiver. So essentially a hitch reducer that also supplies a drop. If that is…

What you need is a taller weight distribution shank so that you can move the head of the system up higher and get the additional height needed. For that the Curt part #C17123 which would give you additional height.

The Draw-Tite Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2-3/4" Rise, 4" Drop - 9" Long - 7.5K #2753 is not the correct fit for zero rise or drop. For the zero rise or drop you will need the Curt Solid 2-Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 2"…

I do have an option for you as the Curt Fusion only offers ball mounts with a 2" Ball #C45134 or 1-7/8" hitch ball #C45131. The Curt Solid 2-Ball Mount #C45002 is a straight shank design with a 2" and 2-5/16" hitch ball welded in…

While the Curt Fusion Ball Mount #C45134 is made in China we do have their similar Curt Solid Ball Mount #C45312 that is made in the USA. You will need the 2" Hitch Ball #CB26C and Gen-Y Hitch Pin and Clip #325-GH-096 to have all the parts made…

Answer 12

I wouldn't say one type of ball mount has more or a reputation of failing than the other. The welded on triple ball mount part #BWBMTT31004 that you referenced is very well made and would not have any issues with reliability.
