Is There a 2" Hitch Ball for the Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook

Question

Question:

Is there a convert a ball for the curt 48410 pintle hitch? The pintle doesn’t ride against the ball or the ball shank but down in the saddle of the hitch so a convert a ball on that hitch would make it even more versatile since I pull trailers with pintle and 2” and 2 5/16” balls

I do have an option for you but there isn't any sort of quick change hitch ball system for the Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook part # CU97FR which comes with a 2-5/16" ball. That said, you can either swap back and forth between this and the Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook part # CU47FR which comes with a 2" ball or change the hitch ball each time with the Replacement Hitch Ball for Curt SecureLatch Pintle Hook part # CU67FR.
