I went out to our warehouse and measured the Draw-Tite and Reese Replacement Weight Distribution Trunnion Style Head, part #RP58167. The distance from the top, flat portion of the head to the vertical mounting holes is 3/4-inch. From bolt hole to…

3 inch hitches like what the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount #BWTS30040B was designed for use the same hitch pin diameter as the smaller 2 inch and 2.5 inch hitch size which is 5/8 inch diameter. For a locking hitch pin to use with this…

We do carry universal hitches that are rated for 10,000 pounds and above, like the Draw-Tite part #41990-07. I've linked the selection. With that being said a lot of times when a motorhome is rated for 5,000 pounds towing it isn't the…
