What is a trailer hitch ball mount?
A trailer hitch ball mount is the shank-and-platform part that slides into a vehicle's hitch receiver and carries the hitch ball. It connects the tow vehicle to the trailer coupler. Ball mounts come in fixed, drop, rise and adjustable styles, sized to a 2" receiver.
What size hitch ball mount do I need?
Match three things: receiver size (most US trucks use 2"), ball size (2" for medium trailers, 2-5/16" for heavy trailers), and drop or rise so the loaded trailer sits level. Always confirm the ball mount's weight rating exceeds your loaded trailer weight.
What's the difference between a drop hitch and a rise hitch?
A drop hitch lowers the ball below the receiver — used when the tow vehicle's receiver sits higher than the trailer coupler. A rise hitch raises the ball above the receiver — used when the vehicle sits lower than the trailer. Most ball mounts can be flipped to give either drop or rise.
