I would be happy to help you with this issue you have. This is something you should be concerned with. You're going to want to haul your trailer as level as possible and the issue you're encountering is common and easy to address. With the information you have given me, I recommend going with the Flash Solid Steel Adjustable 2-Ball Mount item # FA49-00-5900. This adjustable ball mount fits a 2" Hitch it has a 10" drop and 11" rise and has a 12,000 lbs capacity. If you are looking for a fixed mount then you just need to measure the distance between your trailer and the receiver hitch on your 2021 Ford F-150. I have linked a FAQ to help you with the process and also our selection of fixed ball mounts below.
