What Trailer Ball Needed For 8000 lb Weight Distribution System
Question:
Hi I want to purchase the Curt MV Weight Distribution System - Round Bar - 8,000 lbs GTW, 800 lbs TW Item # C17051 Can you tell me what Hitch Ball I need to purchase for it? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
For the Curt # C17051 MV Weight Distribution system, the appropriate hitch ball will depend on the ball size required by your trailer coupler which should be stamped into the metal of the coupler.
You'll need a trailer ball with a 1-1/4 inch diameter shank. For a 2 inch ball, use # A-90 or # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch diameter ball.
