Convert-A-Ball 6-Way Multi-Hitch Ball Mount Review - 2008 Nissan Frontier Video

The 1-7/8" Bolt-On Hitch Ball #325-GH-090 for the Gen-Y 3-Ball Mount #325-GH-054 uses a 3/4" x 4" bolt to secure the ball. The hole is just slightly larger than this.

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

A 4-Way trailer connector has the basic lighting functions only; running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground. A 7-Way has these functions and a 12 volt circuit, a circuit for electric trailer…

You can have a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball on either a 1 inch or 1-1/4 inch shank. The nut on a hitch ball with a 1-1/4 inch shank takes a wrench with a 1-7/8 inch socket. A hitch ball with a 1 inch shank will take a wrench with a 1-1/2 inch socket. You…
