• Recommended Trailer Hitch, Gooseneck Hitch, and Sway Control for 2007 Ram 3500 Flatbed Chassis
  For your 2007 Dodge RAM 3500 HD Flat Bed Crew Cab with dually chassis there is not a B&W trailer hitch receiver available. Instead, I recommend you use the Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class IV - 2" # 41936 rated for 1,200 lbs tongue weight or 12,000 lbs towing. If you need a stronger receiver or one that can use weight distribution, I recommend the Draw Tite Class V # 41947 rated for 15,000 lbs towing without weight distribution or 16,000 lbs towing with...

• Recommended Ball Mount and Hitch Ball Compatible with Tightening Tool 45007
  The Curt Hitch Ball Holder and Tightening Tool for Ball Mounts # C45007 will work well with the Curt Solid Ball Mount for 2" Hitches # C45313. The platform is the standard 2-1/2 inches wide. I recommend the hitch ball # A-90 for a 2 inch ball or # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch option. You may also want to consider # e98880 for a locking hitch pin to secure your investment and deter theft.

• Is the HitchGrip Weight Distribution System Carrying Tool Compatible with a 2 Inch Hitch Ball?
  The HitchGrip Carrying Tool # 303-HG-712 is only compatible with a 2-5/16 inch ball. Unfortunately there is not a 2 inch compatible option. However, I do have a possible solution to utilize that HitchGrip Tool. If your weight distribution system uses a 1 inch shank hitch ball, then you would use the Convert-A-Ball Interchangeable Ball Set # 105TB to allow you to use this tool and have the proper hitch ball for your system. If your system need a 1-1/4 inch hitch ball shank you can use...

• Availability of Convert-A-Ball Interchangeable Trailer Hitch Ball w/ 1-1/4 Inch Diameter Shank
  Convert-A-Ball doesn't offer their Interchangeable Trailer Ball Sets with a 1-1/4 Inch diameter. If you're wanting to use a ball mount with a 1-1/4 inch hole for the trailer ball, you could use a Hitch Ball Bushing like # 58184, which would allow you to use a 1 inch diameter shank trailer ball in a ball mount with a 1-1/4 inch hole. This would allow you to use the # 902B Stainless Steel Interchangeable Ball Set or if you prefer nickel plated, you could use # 900B. Keep in mind that using...

• Is a Ball Mount Spacer Available for a Hitch Ball with a 1 Inch Diameter Shank
  To use the Curt 2 Inch Trailer Ball, # 40038, with the B&W Ball Mount, # BWBMHD30010, you will want to use the Reese Hitch Ball Bushing, # 58184. This will not reduce the towing or tongue weight capacity of the hitch ball or the ball mount, but you will be limited to the 12,000 lb towing capacity of the hitch ball since it is the lowest rated component.

• Is there an Adapter to Fit a Hitch Ball with 1 Inch Diameter Shank in a 1-1/4 Ball Hole

• Is there a 1-7/8 Inch Trailer Hitch Ball with a 1-1/4 Inch Shank
  Ball # C48810 is the only 1-7/8 inch diameter ball that also has a 1-1/4 inch shank. Like you said it is made to fit a pintle hitch combo ball mount. What I recommend is a ball with a 1 inch diameter shank like # 19260 and then use bushing # 58184 or # F-2 to use it in your ball mount with the 1-1/4 inch opening.

• Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Audi A4 Allroad for Towing 960 lb Travel Trailer
  In addition to the Curt # C11448, EcoHitch offers a hitch for your Allroad A4 that has a 2 inch receiver, part # 306-X7370. This hitch has higher ratings, with a towing capacity of 3500 lbs and a 525 lb tongue weight capacity. The advantage to this hitch is that the receiver tube is removable. Once it's removed, the hitch will not be visible at all. This hitch should be able to handle the weight of the small travel trailer you mentioned, but keep in mind that the towing capacity of the...

• How Tall is the Ball Mount Bushing Part # 58184
  I attached a picture that has all of the dimensions of the Bushing part # 58184, but the overall height of it is 1/2 inch. You would not need to use two of these bushings.

• Can Curt Hi Rise Hitch Ball C40034 be Used with Curt Ball Mount # C45338

• Shank Diameter for Shocker Hitch XR Adjustable Drop Hitch
  The replacement hitch ball for the Shocker Hitch XR Adjustable Drop Hitch is part # A-90 and has a 1-1/4" shank. All of the Convert-A-Ball hitch balls have a 1" shank so you'll either need to use one of the hitch ball kits, part # 906b, with a hitch ball bushing # 58184 to take up that extra space or you can use an upgraded ball mount with integrated hitch balls like the B&W Tow and Stow part # BWTS10040B for a 2-ball system or part # BWTS10049B for a 3-ball system. No matter which ball...

• Ball Bushing # 58184 Recommendation for use with Ball Mount # DT40201
  You would need to purchase a Hitch Ball Bushing - 1-1/4 inch to 1 inch, part # 58184, to be able to use a 1 inch diameter shank ball with the Ball Mount 2-3/4 inch Rise or 4 inch Drop, part # DT40201, as it does not come with a bushing to allow you to use a 1 inch shank ball. I have included an FAQ article on how to pick the right ball mount below that you might find informative.

• Recommended Friction Sway Control Setup for Trailer 26 Feet Long or Weight Distribution System
  For your system, the Draw-Tite Ball Mount - 2-3/4" Rise, 4" Drop - 8-3/4" Long - 10,000 lbs # DT40201 will give you the 4 inch drop you are seeking for level coupler height. Then the friction sway control kit # 83660 comes into play for the trailer. To add the bracket for this system to your ball mount, you will need # RP26003 but you are correct that the hitch ball hole size is 1 inch so you will need to use a 1 inch diameter shank hitch ball like # C40007. To ensure there is not excessive...

• What is Part B in the Reese Strait-Line Weight Distribution Instructions
  In the instructions for weight distribution system # RP66082, part B is a bushing. It is used when the shank of the ball being used is smaller than the hole on the ball platform. For example bushing # 58184 is used if you had a ball hole that was 1-1/4 inches in diameter but a ball shank that is only 1 inch in diameter. You would not need to worry about this if you have a ball that has a 1-1/4 inch shank diameter such as # A-90 for a 2 inch ball or # 19286 for a 2-5/16 inch ball.

• Will Reese Sway Control Bracket RP26003 and Ball Mount # C45336 Fit Hitch Ball # 40038
  The shank length of the hitch ball part # 40038 that you referenced is 2-1/4 inches long. That would easily be long enough to fit through the ball mount # C45336 and the Reese Sway-Control Bracket # RP26003. You will need a bushing part # 58184 though since the ball mount hole diameter is slightly larger.
