This Diversi-Tech Solid Tow adjustable ball mount provides solid, rattle-free towing performance. A stainless steel pin, operated by the included hex tool, extends out from the shank and tightens the ball mount in your receiver. The balls and the adjustable ball platform tighten also, eliminating movement. You'll enjoy the quiet, rattle-free towing experience.

A bolt in the side of the ball platform tightens it to the mount. When you loosen the bolt with the hex tool, you can slide the platform up or down to change the ball height. Or, you can slide the platform off and reverse it to use the other ball.

Diversi-Tech Adjustable Solid-Tow Aluminum Ball Mount Review

Video Transcript for Diversi-Tech Adjustable Solid-Tow Aluminum Ball Mount Review

This is Diversi-Tech Adjustable Solid Aluminum Ball Mount, part number DTSTBM6800. The ball mount is made from an aircraft grade billet aluminum. It is made from a single piece of aluminum, machined down into our ball mount. It is designed to fit 2 inch by 2 inch trailer hitches. It is rated for up to 10,000 lbs trailer weight and up to 1,500 lbs tongue weight. It will provide a 9 inch rise or an 8 inch and can be adjusted in 1 inch increments. On the ball platform are 2 fixed balls. A common 2 inch and a larger 2-5/16. To attach the ball platform to our shank we are going to unlock the Allen bolt on the side and remove it. There is a second Allen bolt that locks into one of the adjustment holes on our shank, so again we are going to use our Allen key and undo this bolt from the front of the platform. We do not need to remove it, just back it out until it is flush on the inside of the ball platform. Next, we can slide it on to our ball mount, and begin to tighten the bolt down. You will know it is seated properly on one of the adjustment holes when you can get this bolt flush with the face of the ball platform. Once we have our adjustment bolt set, we will re-install our locking bolt on the side. This ball mount also uses Diversi-Tech adjusting system. The adjusting system puts tension between our ball mount and the inside of our receiver hitch to remove any hitch noise. Tighten the bolt and the adjustment pin pops out, removing any gap between the ball mount and the receiver hitch. And that is it for the Diversi-Tech Adjustable Ball Mount, part number DTSTBM6800.

I ordered thie DTSTBM6800 for my GMC HD2500. The quality is great. You cannot turn the ball to the inside because the holes do not go all the way through the vertical drop beam. The rattle free screws do as advertised... prevent rattling. Unfortunatelly DT does not offer this in a 2 1/2 inch size to fit my 2011 GMC HD2500. The sleeve that comes with the truck reduces the receiver size from 2.5 inches to fit the 2 inch receiver... this is the part that rattles and drives me crazy!!! I'm currently troubleshooting to resolve this issue. 9611

I'm impressed with the fit, finish, & quality of this adjustable ball mount. The adjustment is quick/easy and it doesn't rattle like most other ball mounts I've used. Another key feature for me is that this mount is constructed of aluminum. My truck is exposed to the elements of New England (excessively salted roads & living on the Seacoast), so I will never have to worry about this mount deteriorating due to rust.8635

  • Will the Adjuster/Tensioner Screw Come Loose When Towing a Trailer
  • I spoke with my contact at Diversi-Tech about the Adjustable Solid-Tow Aluminum Ball Mount, # DTSTBM6800. He stated that the unit has a binding nut to lock it in place. This creates a double redundancy to keep the unit from coming loose. He also stated that this particular unit is not intended for use in harsher climates where a lot of salt is used on the roadways in the winter if you plan on leaving the mount attached to the vehicle all the time. It is also recommended that you grease the bo
