- Will a Long Ball Mount Reduce the Capacity of a Class III Trailer Hitch on a 2007 Chevy Equinox
- Unless the adjustable ball mount you purchased is excessively long (to me, it looks like about 10 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball hole) you should not have any problems, especially with such a light trailer.
A more ideal fit would be a Class III accessory to match your Class III trailer hitch like Ball Mount # 80240 which has a 4-3/4 inch rise. I have included an FAQ article on choosing the correct ball mount below.
