Possibly!
What determines if a hitch ball fits a ball mount is the size of the shank that goes through the ball mount.
You'll need to remove your current hitch ball to measure this hole and then find the correct hitch ball below:
5/8" hole # C40097
3/4" hole # 19258
1" hole # 63845
Keep in mind you still need to stay underneath the capacity stamped on your ball mount no matter what size ball you put on.
