Can Hidden Hitch 2 Inch Hitch Reducer be Used When Towing

Question:

Is this adapter safe to use for towin, or is it only for accessories such as bike racks?

asked by: Mark


Expert Reply:

The hitch adapter could be used while towing. Normally we would suggest purchasing a 2 inch ballmount with the correct size ball rather than use an adapter. Brophy part # HT02 would be a better choice of a reducer as a sleeve is stronger and will not reduce the capacity. You have to make sure you do not exceed the capacities of the 1-1/4 inch ball mount or the ball.

The best solution and the one I recommend would be to use a proper 2 inch ball mount.
