Need a Ball Mount with 5-Inches of Rise or Drop to Match Trailer Coupler and Hitch Heights

Question:

Hi. The difference between my 2inch receiver and my trailer coupler is 5 3/8. Im looking for a fixed ball mount with a 5inch and a 6000 lb. GTW but I cant seem to find any. Do you sell a mount with those specs? If not do you have any suggestions as to what I might use? Thanks very much.

We do offer a range of fixed 2-inch ball mounts with rise and drop. Since I do not know whether you need 5-inches of rise or drop I have included a link to our page for fixed 6000-lb-rated ball mounts. You can use the filters in the left-hand margin to select either rise or drop.

It is fine for the hitch ball to be slightly higher than the coupler since the tongue weight of the trailer will cause some degree of squat when the trailer is hitched.

Part # D-28 offers 4-inches of rise or 6-inches of drop.
