Rust Proof Adjustable Ball Mount w/ 5 Inch Drop
Question:
Hello. I am looking for a ball mount with a 5” . I would like to have something that doesn’t rust. I would also like to get some type of antirattle system. I am undecided if it would be better to get something stationary or an adjustable mount that I could adjust the height depending on how much weight I was pulling. So that the trailer would stay level. I’m not pulling anything in particular. Just a utility trailer for miscellaneous needs. Would you have any suggestions for me? Thank you

For a rust proof ball mount you're going to want the Rapid Hitch Adjustable, Aluminum Ball Mount Kit w/ 2 Greaseless Balls - 5-1/2" Drop item # AM3405. This adjustable ball mount has a 5-1/2" drop and 6-1/2" rise. It also has a two ball combo of 2" and 2-5/16" for hauling different trailers. The greaseless nylon cap allows for easy rotation between ball and coupler when towing this will help with rattle.
