Multipupose Ball Mount to Tow a Trailer and Bike Rack at Same Time that Doesnt have a Drop  

Question:

Is there a dual receiver like the D 210 that doesnt have the drop of 2 1/4inch ? Im wondering because Im afraid with the 2 1/4inch drop my pop up camper will be too low in the front while towing. I need the dual receiver to haul my bike rack while camping, but it would be better to not have the drop hitch. I would like to keep the weight distribution as close to the bumper as possible. That is why I liked the style of the D 210 vs. MT 70070.

You wouldn't want to use MaxxTow MT70070 anyway because it will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the trailer hitch by 50 percent.

The Curt multipurpose ball mount # D210 is going to be the best option. To overcome the 2-1/4 inch drop you can use a ball with a rise such as # C40034. This is a 2 inch ball rated for 6,000 pounds. It has a 2 inch rise so the drop of the ball mount would only be 1/4 inch.

We also have ball # C40033 with a 1 inch rise.

If you require a 1-7/8 inch ball use # C40031 which also has a 1 inch rise or # C40032 with a 2 inch rise.
