Ball Mount that has Sway Control Bracket Attached to It

Question

Question:

I have a Subaru trailer hitch ball mount that measures 3 1/8inch wide. The video for this #RP26005 says the max. width is 2 5/8. Do have one that will work or know where I can get one. Trying to avoid having a weld on.

Helpful Expert Reply:

We don't have a wider bracket than the # RP26005 for your ball mount so the best option we would have would be a new ball mount that has the bracket already attached like the Curt # D320 which has a drop of 2 inches since you aren't wanting to do any welding.
