Adjustable Ball Mount Recommendation for 2021 Ford F-250 with 2.5 inch Hitch
Question:
Hi, I have a 2021 f250 and need a 2.5 hitch. My pickup is 4 taller than stock and I use a wide range of trailers so Im thinking an adjustable ball is what I need but I want one that isnt going to make a ton of rattling noise and is not easy to steal. I like some of the fastway hitches but they seem like theyd get stolen easily. Any help is appreciated!

Hey Buddy, so the Fastway Adjustable Ball Mount part # DTSTBM6825-2S is a really great choice for the 2-1/2 inch hitch of your 2021 Ford F-250 which is going to be very solid in your hitch due to it's built in anti-rattle device that is easy to use. This acts as somewhat of an anti-theft device as a thieve would need to know that it's an allen wrench that is needed to loosen the device and they'd have to have the right size wrench.
But what you can also go with is a hitch lock like the part # RM-315 and they'd have to have a key to get the ball mount from you.
