Ball Mount Recommendation for a 1" Drop Towing Application
Question:
My measurements for the drop needed on my ball hitch mount came out to a 1” drop. Am I better off going with a 0 drop or a 2” drop since a 1” is not available? Thanks

Great question, Allen!
Getting your towing setup within 1" of level is still acceptable, and for your application I recommend going with a 0 drop like what we see with the Flint Hill Goods Tri-Ball Mount # FHG62VR.
When you can't get it exact I always recommend choosing the slightly higher because the ball mount connection will naturally rest a little lower once the weight is placed on it.
