Features to know about

Gives You Extra Clearance: 13-1/4" Long Shank

When you need a little more room behind the bumper or to clear a spare tire, this mount’s extra length makes all the difference. The solid steel shank measures 13-1/4" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball hole, giving you more reach than a standard mount. It’s a simple way to keep your trailer coupler and accessories from bumping the back of your vehicle.

Keeps Your Trailer Level: 3/4" Rise or 2" Drop

A level trailer means safer driving and smoother performance. This mount can be flipped for either a 3/4" rise or a 2" drop, so you can dial in your setup for balanced towing. Whether you’re hooking up a camper, boat, or utility trailer, it helps keep everything steady on the road.

Built to Handle Heavy Loads: 10,000 lbs GTW and 1,000 lbs Tongue Weight

This is a heavy-duty mount made for serious work. With a 10,000-lb gross towing weight and 1,000-lb tongue weight rating, it’s strong enough for larger trailers without flexing or wobbling under pressure. The solid steel shank design gives it the strength needed for reliable towing every trip.

Stays Strong and Looks Good: Corrosion-Resistant Black Powder Coat

Tow gear takes abuse from weather and road grime, but this one holds up. The sturdy steel construction is finished with a corrosion-resistant black powder coat that keeps rust away and maintains a clean look over time. It’s built to stay strong even after repeated use in rough conditions.

Simple, No-Nonsense Setup: Fixed Ball Mount Design

There’s nothing complicated about it—just slide it into your 2" x 2" receiver and secure it with your hitch pin or lock (sold separately). The fixed design means fewer parts to adjust or maintain while still giving you dependable performance every time you tow.

The receiver on our Kubota is kind of tucked up under the bed. With the shorter hitches, it is hard to get to quickly to pull the clevis and drop a feed trough. This is especially important when you have 100 hungry momma cows breathing down your neck looking for more grain. This solved the concern by getting the hitch out where I could quickly get to it.



by:

This ball mount has been very handy, we tow a enclosed trailer behind our Motorhome and with a shorter ball mount our trailer on tight turns would touch the back corners of the motorhome. But haven’t had that problem any more with this mount, the couple extra inches in length solved our problem. Plus with a weight rating of 10k lbs it has plenty of strength to handle our trailer being loaded up with all our toys (atv & side by side)



by:

This ball hitch is very heavy duty and will last for years to come. Thanks Etrailer!!

Still worhing great ..and doing everything I need it to do..also works great as a step up into my truck absolutely would recommend this to someone...

This hitch is a beast. Rated at 10,000 lbs and made from solid bar stock. The box it came in was very damaged but the hitch was totally fine - after all, what is there to hurt (besides whatever it hit!) Good prices, good communication, quick service, perfect transaction. etrailer for the win.



by:

Great ball mount. Reached out the perfect distance for our big rear bumper, while keeping it to a class IV rating. Only used it a couple times but so far it's perfect for our needs and the quality doesn't appear to be cheap.
Thanks etrailer for quick shipment and excellent service.



by:

The original order for this mount busted out of the shipping box while in transit to me. I notified etrailer sending them a picture of the ripped-open box and they notified me that a replacememt would be send ASAP. I received the replacement mount in 7 days.

Works great and provides the extra clearance I need between the my trailer and truck bed.

We use a 2008 GMC Denali with a tandem axle 16 foot trailer built with extra one foot on the ball mount. When used with the BH20 reciver we can turn the truck all the way to the left or right with out any issues! Great for our lawn care business for getting in and out of our customers.

BH20 has worked out great for us to be able to make tight turns.also extended just enough that the tailgate will lower with out hitting the jack!



by:

Just what I wanted. I've been using it to tow a 2 axle trailer weighing 10k. It has been perfect. Before this long ball mount I would get a small amount of deflection using a 10k rated hollow tube mount. With this one, even at the same 10k rating there is no deflection of the solid steel bar. I have a camper on the truck that fits in the bed with no over hang, I like to keep the custom trailer away from the camper Jack's when making tight turns. This is the best I've found.

HEAVY DUTY



by:

Perfect! just what I needed to get my trailer a little further away from the tow vehicle. Thank you!



by:

Honestly it is exactly what I needed. And there are not many of this style out there. I needed a slightly longer hitch/tongue set up and this was perfect. Plus the weight class for my hitch is right on. Be cautious of your tongue weight but this helped greatly with backing up.



by:

Excellent fit on Bronco. Ball just beyond 35” spare.



by:

this is heavy duty and perfect for my setup. I highly recommend this hitch.



by:

Great extended hitch. Very solid. Allowed room to drop tailgate while trailer attached due to built in trailer jack.

Rock-solid ball mount. Recommended, particularly if you pull something heavy that requires a 'beefy' setup.

It’s a beast

Great mount, excellent quality and price, we ours to move a 34ft rigid inflatable boat on a dual axle trailer (GTW 8,500lbs) around South Florida. Never a problem and choice and service from etrailer couldn't be easier-thanks!

Stout! I searched forever for this extended heavy duty hitch and finally found it here. Extended just enough to lower my tailgate without having to unhook. I love it.

very good no problems

First order for this item came up missing in transit. I called etrailer and seen the part was missing. The very nice lady on the phone gave me the option for full refund or replacement. The part was very important to me and I needed it asap. It was sent out and got it in a few days.THANK YOU etrailer

I was looking for an extended ballmount for my dually as a regualr size ballmount with a 2" drop would not clear my heavy duty bumper. I have a 6" drop but it is too low for my new car hauler trailer. After finding this Brophy ball mount, BH20, I ordered it right away. I was pleasantly surprised to receive it in only a few days. I expected to get it in about a week.
This ballmount is just as described. Solid, heavy-duty(10K lbs. with a 1K lb. tongue weight) and fits great. See my before and after pics. The extension is enough to clear my bumper while using a 2" drop. Thanks, etrailer!



by:

Ball mount is awesome! Just what I needed, my aftermarket bumper has a long step that wont allow a normal hitch to work. It sits underneath the step, the only thing that would of work is a ball mount with more of a drop. Then my trailer would of dragged on the ground. I don't have a lift on my F150. I forgot to take some before photos but I have the after photos and its just awesome. Hope this helps!



by:

very sturdy at 19lbs. The extra length is a great help as I can drop the tailgate and not worry about it hitting the trailer jack.

  • Hitch Extender for 10,000 lb Travel Trailer Compatibility
    I wish you would have asked this question prior to your purchase of the Curt Extender # C45791, because this extender will not work for your application. It is rated for the 3,500 lb total trailer weight towing capacity and because it is an adapter will also decrease your tongue weight rating of your trailer hitch by 50%. Instead, you may want to consider the Brophy Ball Mount for 2" Hitch # BH20. This ball mount is capable of towing 10,000 lbs and has a measurement of 13-1/4 inches...

  • Recommended Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin For A Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # 325-GH-214
    Hey Kyle, For the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers # 325-GH-214 I recommend the Gen-Y Iron Grip Anti-Rattle Hitch Pin for 2" Hitch Receivers - 5/8" Diameter # GY39FR. This can be used for securing the # 325-GH-214 to the trailer hitch receiver and for preventing rattling of the Brophy Ball Mount # BH20 in the # receiver tubes of the # 325-GH-214.

    We do have longer ball mounts like the Brophy part # BH20 which is 13-1/4 inch long from hitch pin hole to ball hole center. This has a 10,000 lb towing weight capacity and would easily clear the rear spare of your Wrangler as well. For a 2 inch ball then to use with this we have the part # A-90.

Now the # BM20 has a 10,000lb trailer weight rating, and 1,000lb tongue weight rating. As long as your boat and trailer does not exceed this, this would be your best bet for the clearance you are needing. For a compatible hitch ball you will need...

The closest option we have is the Draw-Tite Ball Mount for 2" Hitches - 3" Rise, 4" Drop - 12" Long - 12,000 lbs # 4285 which is 12" long and has a 3" rise. For this option you would use 2-5/16" hitch ball # BWHB94003 which has a 3-1/4" long shank and has a 1" rise to get you back up to 4" total rise.

  • Is there an Electric Tongue Jack w/ a Motor that Faces Towards the Rear of the Trailer?
    Hey Andrew there's no electric tongue jacks that'll have the motor facing towards the back but I've got a pretty easy solution for you. If you have a electric jack like item # EJ-3520-BBX or item # BD500199 depending on your mounting bracket you can just rotate your current jack to face another direction that's out of the way of your tailgate. Another option is to use an extended ball mount like item # BH20. It is 13-1/4" long and has a 10,000 lbs capacity.

  • Solution for Hitch Extension With 1,000 Pound TW and 10,000 Pound GTW Capacity on 2000 F-350
    I have a possible solution, but none of the 14-16" extensions have a high enough capacity. The only thing that comes close is the Gen-Y # GY89SR which has a gross towing weight of 10,000 lbs, but the max tongue weight is only 500 lbs. This would also reduce the capacity of your hitch by 50% like many hitch extenders do. If you can handle it being slightly shorter, what you could use instead is the Brophy Ball Mount for 2" Hitch # BH20. This is 13-1/4" long and has the capacity you need....

There are other jacks which have multiple mounting patterns on the flange like the Phoenix # UF38-944040 which will allow for 90 degree placement on the jack.

  • Why Isn't There a 2-5/16" Hitch Ball Available with a 3/4" Diameter Shank
    You are right that there aren't any 2-5/16" hitch balls available that feature a smaller 3/4" diameter shank. This is simply because the higher weight capacity that a 2-5/16" ball provides requires a larger diameter shank to maintain this rating. The most common shank diameter size for this ball is a 1-1/4" like the Draw-Tite # 19286. You also definitely want to make sure you are using a 2-5/16" hitch ball if that is what the coupler on your trailer accepts. Using a smaller 2" ball would...

  • Why Does Ball Mount BH20 Have a Solid Shank While Ball Mount 2923 is Hollow
    When the shank of a ball mount or hitch-mount accessory - say a bike rack for example - is solid rather than hollow this typically means it will be stronger. It also means it will be heavier. The Brophy Ball Mount # BH20 has a solid steel shank which is part of why it has a very substantial 10,000-lb weight rating. The roughly similar Curt ball mount # C45010 offers a 7500-lb weight rating; Even though it is not a solid shank, it does have a very thick platform for our ball to attach. Hollow...

  • Can Smaller Wheels and Tires be Installed on a Jet Ski Trailer to Lower It
    The backspacing is not really the issue, it is the tire width on your current versus new tires. Most trailer tires have a zero offset meaning the mounting surface of the wheel is in the center of the wheel so the tire width becomes important. A 175/80-13 tire that you currently have is about 6.9 inches wide and 24.1 inches tall. A 205/65-10 like # AM3H390, is 8.3 inches wide and 20.5 inches tall. Regarding tires, this is a huge difference in width and you would have to measure the distance...

Instead it is much easier to switch to a ball mount with a longer shank like the Brophy # BH20. This ball mount is 13-1/4" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball mount hole. Most ball mounts are only 8" long so you can measure your trailer to determine if this is going to give you the distance you need to still...

  • Recommendation For Hitch Extender or Longer Ball Mount To Tow Trailer With Dodge Ram 3500
    I would recommend to use a longer ball mount instead of a hitch extender. When using a hitch extender the tongue weight capacity is reduced by 50 percent, so a hitch that has a 600-lb tongue weight capacity will be reduced to 300 lbs. If you have a 2 inch hitch on your Dodge 3500 truck and use a longer ball mount like the Brophy Ball Mount, part # BJ20, it will not reduce the tongue weight capacity and it measures 13-1/4 inches from the center of hitch pin hole to center of hitch ball...
