Adjustable Ball Mount with 2 and 2-5/16 inch Balls and Can Do 7 inches of Drop
Question:
Hello- this, while beefier than I need for my 2022 Lexus GX 460, has the components of what I need. I currently have a class 3 -5000 lb capacity hitch on the vehicle- I will be getting a class IV hitch with the 6500 lb capacity To tow my trash trailer once a week with a 2 inch ball, and the 6 inch . Technically, according to your measurement instructions, I need a 7 inch drop. I currently use a 5 in - it is a simple light utility trailer, not street legal, and I haul my trash 1/4 mile . The 5 in works fine for the weight and the short distance. To tow my airstream basecamp 16x- a 2 5/16 in ball is required , with no . Top of receiver is 17 inches. Bottom of coupler is 17 inches. Is there a lighter option with the same components? Please advise, and thank you.

For a similar adjustable ball mount that covers everything you need that is also maybe a little simpler than the Curt you mentioned the B and W Tow and Stow part # BWTS10040B would be a great option. This has both ball sizes you need and can do both drops you need as well.
