Yes, you can use a 2 5/16" hitch ball, like the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball - 1-1/4" Diameter x 2-3/4" Long Shank - Chrome - 20,000 lbs # 63840, on a trailer that has a 2 5/8" Coupler. You will just want to make sure that you get the shank that is the correct size for the hole on your ball mount.
I have attached a link to the 2 5/16" hitch balls on our site.
