Longer Ball Mount Recommendation with 6 inch Drop for Towtector Mud Flap
Question:
Similar question as some of the others have asked. I am having trouble finding a hitch that has a long enough shank to install my towtector debris guard. However, my question is different. I need a 6inch . Would prefer a rating of 7500lbs or more.

The TowTector is very similar to our RockTamer mudflaps like the part # ERT00108. These require a longer shank ball mount so that they can attach. For that we have the Curt ball mount # D-28 which is 14-1/4 inches long and has a 6 inch drop. It only has a 6k capacity though.
For a somewhat shorter ball mount that's similar we have the Curt # C45240 which does have a 7,500 lb capacity and is 12-1/4 inches long from pin hole to ball hole center.
