Best 2012 Dodge Ram Pickup Trailer Hitch Ball Mounts

Not that many non-adjustable option for a 12” drop and this one is the best! Love the cushion and it’s very strong. I put that to the test today when I got rear ended with it in the back of my truck. This thing saved the back of my Ram. Came right back to etrailer and ordered a new one!

I have a 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 lifted 6 inches with 37 inch tires. This 12 inch dorp is perfect because not only does it absorb the shock from stopping and pulling but this Cushioned Ball Mount also keeps my car trailer perfect level. Great product for the price!

Very stout and solid. Fits a ball with a 2 3/4" or 2 5/8" shanks perfectly, so there isn't too much thread hanging out below waiting to get damaged. It slips into the Ram hitch receiver without much slop, but I haven't towed with it yet.

Ordered the same Drawbar with the 4 inch drop last year and decided I needed a 6 inch drop. This extra long drawbar is great and allows me to back up with the tailgate down for a much better view.

My only dislike; makes a lot of noise when not hooked to a trailer! Any suggestions?

I have not had a chance to use the ball mount yet but it is easy to use and fits receiver with no issues. I recently purchased a Curt class V receiver that is installed below my OEM receiver. With the drop installed in the Curt receiver in the upright position, the back of the ball mount comes very close to the bumper on my 2011 Ram 2500 crew cab. I will see if there are any contact issues when actually towing and revise my review, if necessary.

Great service, awesome hitch!

This hitch setup is top notch! Very heavy duty. I went with this setup over cheaper similar options because those other 3 piece options that are similar just seemed clunky and held together by a lot pins with lose tolerances (IE recipe for wiggling and rattling), not to mention multiple stress points. This B&W unit is sleek and solid, no wiggling around, and tucks up out of the way nicely when not in use...which is more handy than you would think! We are using this on a 2017 Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn with factory air suspension.

Etrailer has been great to work with. Usually the lowest price and good service. The hitch is made in china, but is backed by Reese so should be trustworthy. I will pull a 14K equipment trailer with my 1 ton ram. Glad my truck came with a class V hitch. I like the extra capacity of the 2.5" hitch!

Items arrived ahead of schedule in great shape; fit my 2014 RAM 2500 perfectly.

Great service, awesome hitch!

Top notch product made in USA, enough said!

Good heavy duty product .

I had to take trip with my new Ram 1500 Bighorn and towing my utility trailer with my old hitch wasn't having my trailer level. These items made it level and had no issues at all. Thank you, Joe

I ordered the D900 after purchasing a new truck that is to high for my enclosed equipment trailer (6x12) and dump trailer (6x10) to use a standard drop down hitch. The D900 drops down approximately 5 1/2" and solved this problem for me. It also is capable of rising as well which helps out some on steep inclines (driveways). It installs easily and the tri-ball for me was mandatory as both my trailers use different ball sizes. It was put into use immediately and has performed well to date. This hitch is very well made and appears to be quite durable. I also like how it extends my trailers out slightly farther than my previous set up which has allowed me a tighter radius when backing into tight spots.

I haven't used this hitch much over the last year that I've owned it but I've been completely satisfied every time I have. I'd recommend it to anyone who is looking for a"one stop" hitch. My experience with etrailer has been great, too, and I will be a customer for life as long as they continue to provide quality products at great prices.

Ordered this hitch and it worked perfect for what I needed just bought a teardrop trailer. Couldn't open up the tailgate on my Jeep so I ordered this extended hitch and I brought the ball out past my spare tire and the tailgate opens up now I have no problems. And I looked everywhere couldn't find one of this quality and at this price very reasonable the other ones hundreds of dollars didn't want to spend that much.

This was the longest hitch ball mount I could find anywhere. I used it with a short extension for my 2021 T G so that I could open the back doors without hitting the trailer wheel crank. With my new trailer, Intact Flyer Discover, I don't need the extension and can still open the doors. Works well.

Wow! This is super heavy duty, and looks like a very high quality product. Haven't had a chance to use yet, but I anticipate it to live up to the quality that is evident.

Really like the hitch. Changes ball size easily and plenty sturdy. Only thing I wish I did different is get the 2 1/2” shank instead of the 2” for my Ram 2500 Cummins. I bought the hitch so it would also fit my son’s Ram 1500. I have to use a 2” to 2 1/2” sleeve and it’s a little sloppy. No fault of the hitch though.

Ultra heavy duty ball mount . Hooked up tonight to a New Holland Roll Belt 560 round baler on a Ram 3500 with a tongue weight of 1900 lbs. Pulled like a dream !!!!

Excellent product and easy install on my Ram Express. I have been pulling a 33' travel trailer with no issues. You can't go wrong with this product.

It arrived very quickly and looks great on my new truck. I'll have more peace of mind towing my trailer with this instead of my old mount

Ordered by phone. Great customer service. Timely delivery. Very happy with the entire buying experience. Just got the product and haven't used it yet, but quality construction and finish throughout.

Fast Shipping, Packed great, Everything looks well made and will look even better on my truck.

Really like this hitch I have it on my Ram 3500 single rear tire that has the auto level. Also looks good

Great product, use the fastway and fastway HD on both of my trucks. On my farm I have many different size trailers, these fastway adjustable hitches with 2” and 2 5/16 “ balls fit the bill
