Questions from Ford Explorer owners about this product

• Ball Mount Recommendation for a 2008 Ford Explorer with Class II Trailer Hitch and Multiple Trailers
  
• Since you are towing multiple trailers, they probably do not all have the same coupler height to tow them level. If that is the case than a fixed ball mount would not be the best choice. But if all the trailers do have the same coupler height then going with either ball mount # BM96 or # 36078 would be fine. The main difference between these 2 ball mounts is the rise and drop each offers. Ball mount # BM96 has a 5-1/2 inch rise or 6 inch drop. Ball mount # 36078 has a 4-3/4 inch drop and is n

Ford Explorer Ball Mounts Questions

• Anti-Rattle Recommendations for Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Ball Mount # AMSC4
  
• We do have some anti-rattle locking pins that will fit the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned Ball Mount # AMSC4, but the Lets Go Aero Anti-Rattle Device and Lock # 63232 is not compatible as it needs a hollow shank to fit properly. The Draw-Tite J-Pin Stabilization Pin # 63201 will fit this mount, however it requires a specific type of hitch to ensure a secure fit. I have included a graphic showing what this hitch looks like. I have included links to video reviews of this item. Another option is to

• How to Select the Proper Ball Mount for a 2008 Ford Explorer with 1-1/4 inch Factory Receiver Hitch
  
• Your 2008 Ford Explorer with factory 1-1/4 inch hitch should use a Class II draw bar. The factory hitch on your Explorer has a slightly higher receiver so it is important to measure to determine the correct ball mount for your vehicle and the trailer. You can measure from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on the explorer, then with the trailer tongue level measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler where it goes over the ball. If the truck measurement is higher than the
