Best 2003 Chevrolet Silverado Trailer Hitch Ball Mounts

Used it for the first time today. Was very easy to get ball height adjusted for tag-a-long 2 horse trailer. The rubber no-rattle bumper pad works as advertised. This is a more substantial piece of equipment than it might appear in the pictures - rated just above the capacity for my 1/2 ton pickup. Appears well made with good even welds. I'm pleased with the purchase and etrailer shipping was very fast.

Package arrived within 2 days of ordering. The receiver, 3 pins, and the two balls were with package as ordered. Haven't put it to use yet but seems to be tough and very durable. Using the hitch for a 2005 Chevrolet 2500 gas, hitch has plenty of drop and rise for stock suspension. So far very pleased with this item from etrailer and with other items I have purchased in the past.

Great product. Great service.

Have yet to install but one main reason I bought from etrailer was the ease on finding a hitch to fit my vehicle. The videos were very helpful in assuring ease of installment. Price I thought was more than competitive. Contrary to many other reviews however, I did not receive it nearly as quickly as many others mentioned. In fact, it didn't ship until about 4 days after I placed the order. Thankfully I didn't need it immediately.

The forged trailer ball mount was heavy duty good. It is very solid and wont worry about any overload issues with this. Thanks

Great product. Great service.

We are extremely happy with trailer hitch and accessories that we ordered. Shipping was very fast and the product was as advertised and took about 30 minutes to install. Thanks for your good service!

I purchased the etrailer.com 2-3/4 " Rise or 4" Drop Ball Mount Kit, Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver and Twist-in 7-Pole RV-Style Trailer Connector for my 2011 Chevy Silverado. Quick Delivery! All the necessary parts arrived in perfect condition. Directions were spot on and the instructional videos were great.

Well finished and fits well in my 2014 Silverado 2500 HD. Arrived without delay in good packaging. Don't forget to order a new pin, and lock. This is a 2-1/2 inch ball mount, and pins and locks for 2 inch devices are too short.

Gone are the days I need to carry three different hitches with different sized balls on them. Gone are the days when I, or others, walked around the back of my truck and cracked their shin on a protruding trailer hitch. I keep this folded up in front of the drop where it's not going to catch anyone by surprise. When I'm ready to use it, I simply pull two pins out which allows it to drop free and rotate out. I choose the height I need and install the two pins/clips. To rotate the balls, again simply pull the third pin and rotate to desired size. It was more than I wanted to spend at the time but since I'm glad I spent the money.

Using the 5” drop triple ball on a 2022 F-150 XLT Sport 4x4. The 5” drop allows me to level with a 5x8 Aluma utility trailer and full-size U-Haul/rental box/flat trailers. The ball stow feature is fantastic, prevents theft when properly positioned, and gives a clean appearance. Nothing poking out to dent my shins. I’m going to purchase two more as Christmas gifts for my son’s Silverado and daughter’s Cherokee.

Hitch is a solid unit. I bought this to accommodate my 10,000lb hitch. Adjusts easily to get the right ride height. No issues with the hitch at all.

well over the hitch is very well made. The hitch itself fit great all holes lined up fine.The only problem the flat round washers were to small for the bolts supplied and you should supply washers for the bracket that mounts under the bumper because the holes on the hitch are pretty big , its possible for the lock washer to seat crooked. A trip to the hardware store fixed the issues. Overall were very happy with the hitch.

Looks welll made, but have not used them at this point.

I dont have a question, but I do have some input that I discovered after I ordered the BandW Tow and Stow hitch. My original concern was that the hitchs ball head swing arm as BandW calls it could be removed from the shank. There is a review from another customer that said the hitchs ball head could not be removed, so I ordered it based off of their observation. I saw the experts answer here: http://www.etrailer.com/question-112214.html, and it also eased some of my fears about the hitch being stolen. Once I received the hitch I could tell that theft is not a concern. In the pamphlet that accompanied the hitch there is an advertisement for a Receiver Lock, which as we know, will lock the shank of the hitch to the receiver. However, it goes on to say that as long as the pin is in the first shank hole when the hitch is locked, the swing arm cannot be removed. This is because there is a channel on the back of the hitch that allows the swing arm to be removed is blocked when the hitch is flush with the receiver hitch see the attached picture. To summarize, you dont have to worry about the swing arm ball head being removed. A simple receiver lock will keep the hitch safe.

Easy to adjust and like the way you can swing it under the bumper when not in use.

Great hitch. I bought the 3 ball with 8" drop hitch. My utility trailer needs it almost all the way down. My boat trailer needs it almost all the way up on my Chevy 2500HD. The only time I have removed it was to install a Pintle hitch one day to haul a trailer for a tractor. Tip: Use silicone spray on the adjustable pins. Use of lithium grease fouls them up so it's difficult to remove and reinstall them (collects dirt, dust). Also lubricate your hitch lock monthly, or you won't be able to open it if you ever want to remove the hitch.

Top notch super heavy duty solid Class V 18000# 2 1/2" hitch with 5" drop. Has some weight, but easy to heft with recessed sides. Married this with a 2 5/16" Brophy raw hitch ball. This is overkill for a 7,000# GVWR trailer being pulled frequently by a 2014 Chevy Silverado 3500HD 4X4 Crew dually with 2.5" stock receiver. Has also occasionally pulled several 6,000# wagons to the elevator. Have no major complaints, but there is a slight variant in size of about 1/16" mounted in the 2.5" receiver so there is very light feel when pulling empty. The 5" drop seems to work the best. This is the second hitch purchased for quick change out. Couldn't be more satisfied.

I buy items from etrailer a lot and I have yet had an issue with any of my purchases. This ball mount fits perfectly in my hitch receiver and allows me plenty of weight capacity left. No rattle, fits firm and the drop and rise makes towing any trailer easy.

The products were as expected. The packaging was poor. The heavy, forged steel, Hitch ball mount was thrown into the same box as the wiring harness. There was no attempt to secure or pad the items so the ball mount wouldn't hammer away at the wiring harness everytime the package was turned over. It shows a lack of respect for the hard earned dollars that were spent on the parts...no appreciation for the business.

It was a great transaction. They even upgraded the shipping without even me asking for it. It's great dealing with this type of company that truly cares for there customers. I definetly recommend this company. Product was exactly as described without any issues. Thank you for your great customer service.

Ordered this for Silverado with roll pan and flip down plate. Good quality and fit . Will use this company on next trailer hitch purchase !

The items came very quickly, before I even expected them. The quality looked good on all items. I have ordered from etrailer before, and will continue, as needed. Thanks etrailer for terrific service!

This hitch is constructed even better than I thought, very heavy duty! Love the retractable pins and the key locks!

Can't beat it. Absolutely amazing!

Works flawlessly. I was very excited the day I got home and my Rapid hitch was on the front porch. It came in nice box and was packaged very well. I opened it up and unpacked my rapid hitch and I was very impressed with the quality and precision of this hitch. All of the machining was PERFECT and everything fit together right. I put it in my truck right away. Going down the road with the trailer on and off there is absolutely no rattles, clunks, or jolts. I also love how everything is aluminum or stainless steel, NO RUST. I wish I could've gotten the greaseless model but my boat is too heavy. My only complaint is that it doesn't come with locking pins. With a hitch this expensive I really wish it came with them. Do yourself a favor and order them with your rapid hitch so you don't have to pay for shipping in the future. Other than that great product and I believe it will outlast me.

Very well built hitch works great

Very strong and durable hitch. Elevation and dropping is very convenient. 2 big issues with his hitch. 1) does not have an option to buy a 1 7/8 ball. 2) even with a pin lock on the hitch, the balls can still be stolen with its design. If the balls are stolen they can not be easily replaced or cheaply. Overall, does the job, but once it is stolen, I’ll be buying something better theft protection.

Fast shipping from etrailer. Very heavy duty unit and perfect for my 2020 Silverado 2500HD. I needed an adjustable drop hitch and this unit works perfectly between different trailers that I tow.
